http://www.3news.co.nz/Ex-pats-72-Monaro...55/Default.aspx http://www.stuff.co.nz/environment/5770592/Rena-disaster-Ship-could-break-up-PM We have a new disaster on our hands. This container ship hit a reef,and is now breaking up in a storm,fuel oil leaking and containers falling off. There is public anger at a tardy response,and now because of the storm it's too late...it's almost a matter of watching it all happen. Tauranga is our busiest port,and the beaches pristine and almost untouched by commercialism.
 
As a former muscle car owner I know his anguish. Beautiful car.

Yeah, I know tempest, Govt red tape made the ship run aground, and they are scapegoating the first and second officer to hide it. You are a biggie for taking responsibility...who's responsible for a ship in transit ?

If he did something truly irresponsible, like being drunk on the job, then he should be arrested. I've seen nothing in this article to indicate such a thing. I simply think this is a very rash arrest based on the information that is here. No thorough investigation to see what happened? If this was an accident then it should be more of a civil matter rather than criminal. Seems like the locals want a pound of flesh, rather than a dispassionate resolution.
