You got that right, it wasn't that many years ago the Cuyahoga was converted from steam to diesel. She is pretty agile.big kudos to the Captain of the Cuyahoga, pretty agile for big slug like that.
The sailboat should have come about way sooner, looks like he was drifting with the current. He likely wasn't expecting the freighter to turn towards him if he wasn't paying attention to where he was in the channel, and didn't want to intially turn into the freighter's path. May not have had a graph with charts? Near thing
