Baltimore Key Bridge #27 – DALI anchor dropped to slow ship? Chain NOT yanked back indicates it was dropped after ship stopped

“This was a trillion-dollar costly event, ongoing, and yet all culpable persons remain unnamed, kept totally anonymous, with some reportedly having been slyly ‘escaped’ from the country! There is, in fact, zero publicly-verifiable evidence that any genuine Captain, Pilots or Crew ever existed; was DALI a remote-controlled ghost-ship on kamikazee mission from its outset? No waves nor sounds at all were recorded nor reported by any nearby persons nor cameras. No interviews exist with supposed survivors; “family and friends” etc interviews reveal ‘dupers-delight’ micro-facial-expressions with other hallmarks suggestive of fraud. Rampant is the extremely suspicious damage with blatantly visible, verifiable anomalies totally inexplicable (and ignored) by official theory or story. Grand payola galore is already underway with loads more coming. This is another audacious yet sublime crime, militarized from gov to salvage to rebuild. There was no rescue skiff on scene as required by OSHA. No horn blasts from ship warned of imminent collision. The ship departed despite dire electrical problems, illegal at any time and even more highly unusual in the cold, dark night-time (part #94, first ‘after-sundown departure’ in two years). Criminal was this manufactured event, through and through, and that’s before considering the absurdly high number of other anomalies including the complicit, worthless, ‘kept-pet’ mass-media…”

DALI anchor not dropped to slow ship

Chain NOT yanked back reveals it was dropped after ship stopped

“Had anchor been dropped at speed as claimed, chain would be yanked backwards, if not completely snapped-off!”

So they supposedly dropped anchor in highly likely if not certain futility but couldn’t be bothered to press an air horn button to send out an audible warning?  The seemingly unlikelies mount!

Anchor and chain basics

Chain vs Anchor http://www.youtube.com/shorts/ZJ3PhqW-6-c — Chain holds the ship in place, not the anchor.  7-to-1 ratio, depth of water to length of chain deployed.  In 100 feet depth of water, 700 feet of chain must be deployed; the weight of the deployed chain is what holds the ship in-place.

In contrast, all views of DALI anchor show its chain drops straight-down, not pulled back as it would be had it been deployed during forward motion of the ship then dragged under forceful load.  All views of DALI rear show no anchors until after calamity.

If any anchor had been dropped during the supposed 8 knot forward motion, it would have been pulled back substantially, under maximum force, leaving no slack in the chain, possibly breaking the chain, and definitely leaving no chain dropping vertically down — the chain would have been yanked backwards toward the stern with full force.  Also, there likely would appear noticeable scuffing of the hull made by the chain under such force.

Lack of evidence (i.e., scuff marks on hull or broken chain) indicates that no anchor was dropped during forward motion of the ship.

Conflicting evidence (i.e., chain straight down not pulled back) indicates that no anchor was dropped during forward motion of the ship.

Moreover, to be effective as an anchor, a long payout of chain is necessary, said to be up to 7 times the vessel length, such that the anchor ‘sees’ an horizontal pull by the chain, and that additional weight of chain also acts as anchoring force.  TODO need source (short YT, of chain catastrophes).

DALI anchor

BELOW: Every image, from every angle, shows the chain drops straight-down.  The chain should be pulled-back towards the stern, the rear of the ship.  That it is not indicates that the anchor was in fact dropped after the ship stopped moving.  The physical evidence indicates that the early but consistent story of ‘anchor dropped to slow ship’ is untrue.

Anchor chain straight-down; should be pulled-back had it been deployed and was dragging or helped slow the ship
