Navy staff struggled to rein in runaway boat
Hindustan Times
|December 21, 2024
The Maharashtra Maritime Board (MMB) investigation into Wednesday's ferry accident near Gateway of India revealed that while a naval vessel collided with the passenger ferry Nilkamal due to engine malfunction, the ferry was also overloaded at the time of the incident.
Police officials said the Navy speed boat's crew tried to minimise the impact of the inevitable crash, which was triggered after an engine malfunction appeared to have opened the throttle.
Mahendra Singh Shekhawat, a Marine Commandos (MARCOS) petty officer who died in the incident, attempted to reduce the collision's severity, according to statements from Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) employees who were aboard the naval vessel.
