Saw a report it was being piloted by the local harbor pilot at the time, not the native crew, which makes sense.

China and Russia aren't 3rd world countries. Also, China and India represent 35% of the world population. They're going to make up a significant proportion of any international sample. I don't think citizens from "3rd world countries" are over-represented in container ship crews.

Why wasn’t the anchor mechanically dropped when they lost power the first time?

Isn’t that SOP for this type of situation?

press conference highlights:

35,000 cars use it daily
5 years to build
column was hit and sunk it
7 cars on top working on concrete, 1 in critical condition, 6 not found yet
it was the safe way to move hazardous waste, no roads no tunnels
will impact traffic patterns for a really long time/years
There is an unspoken thing, we are iron brothers and sisters, we are to support each other and…It is our duty to support our brothers and sisters in the iron game!

The native crew would be in the machinery spaces making sure the anchor was ready to drop in situations just like this?

This isn't the 1980s anymore. They're undoubtedly "second world", with plenty of arguments for "first world". I know you're trying to speak in generalizations because it's funny and cool to do so on the misc, but if you truly believe that you're incredibly misinformed.

Its to keep a ship stationary, not stop it under way. That heavy ass ship isn't going to stop by dropping anchor.

201340 Risks of dropping the anchor underway 14 - The Nautical Institute.

While overtaking the pontoon, the cargo vessel’s main engine suddenly failed. Since the electrical systems on board the vessel were linked to the main engine via the shaft generator, the electricity failed as well and for a short period of time the vessel suffered a blackout. During the blackout, the rudder unexpectedly turned to port, causing the vessel to deviate sharply from its course and toward the tug and tow. In order to prevent a collision, the captain, on VHF radio, ordered the anchor let go. As there were crew on deck at the time, the anchor was let go very quickly after the order – within 15 seconds. At the time the anchor was let go the cargo vessel still had a speed over ground (SOG) of 7.5 knots.

Despite the attempts by the AB to secure the winch brake, the anchor chain continued to run out. The last length of chain had broken loose from the chain locker, and the AB was hit and fatally injured by the bitter end.

The cargo vessel collided with the pontoon almost simultaneously with the breaking free of the anchor chain. Both vessels sustained limited damage as a result of the collision.

Lessons learned
The use of the anchor to slow down the ship in an emergency:
IACS stipulates that an anchor must be constructed in such a way that it is suitable to anchor a ship temporarily in ‘moderate’ ******t conditions. The anchor gear is not designed to stop a ship. Anchoring at high speed is an extremely risky operation that may result in fatal injuries to crew members and serious damage to the ship. Such a manoeuvre should only be considered in an extreme emergency.

Looks like someone dropped the anchor and it veered it off course.

Your point isn’t valid

1. The ship was slowly moving
2. The ship was in shallow water
3. Reasons like this is exactly why the anchor is maned during channel navigation.
4. If running into a bridge isn’t an extreme emergency what is?

Such a manoeuvre should only be considered in an extreme emergency.
I interpret that quote as a loss of power due to "lugging" the vessel due to dropping the anchors (assuming they actually grab). If the ship is under zero thrust (via captain) and the anchors catch, I do not see how that would cause a power failure. The coupling between the driveshaft and the engine(s) would not be present under zero thrust.

Do I think this was due to power failures? Yes. No thrust = continued increased turning radius over time (radius increases as vessel continues to lose velocity).

Do I think it's due to the above anchor theory? No
