from ZeroHedge:
A massive container ship reportedly lost power on the Upper New York Bay – just before the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge connecting the New York City boroughs of Staten Island and Brooklyn.
According to Captain John Konrad, CEO of gCaptain, a New York City tugboat captain informed him that the 354-meter container ship APL QINGDAO “lost power while transiting New York harbor.”
“They had 3 escort tugs but 3 more were needed to bring her under control. They regained power & were brought to anchor near the verrazano bridge,” the tugboat captain told Konrad.
