    I've been on a few ships in the past that have had whoopsies, some man made and others thru gear failure.
    The best one was coming into Bombay Port, been working offshore for 2 months, no beer or birds so the boys wanted to hit town real bad, turned out the Skipper was more desperate than us. We were all showered and spivved up leaning over the handrail approaching the wharf, about 100 meters out we were looking at one another thinking shit he's coming in a little fast, time go's by and we weren't slowing until crunch, metal against concrete, some bloody big rubber fenders get ripped of the edge of the wharf and fall into the drink. Ripped a few life boat supports and stuffed the hand rail we were leaning on.

    Anyway to cut the story short the skipper paid for drinks and the whorehouse that night, next day the Flippo AB's were out scrapping paint and applying gallons of new paint. A shore based engineering company were contracted for a few days to sort out the life boats and hand rails before we could sail. Nice little extended stopover.

    150T crane single vehicle rollover, been on the side of the road for two weeks, quite a bit of extra damage was done rolling it onto its wheels with a digger.
    taken a week to build pads for the recovery cranes, to lift it out of the way.
