Chapter 1358: Fishing net entanglement

Xiong Guo Cargo Ship Laborer.
This is a cargo ship with a displacement of more than 20,000 tons. At this time, the bow is full of containers.
In this era, container transportation is quite common. The biggest feature of this method is to save loading and unloading time. As long as the container is directly hoisted, it is easy to stack on a cargo ship.
From a distance, the cargo ship is like building blocks, filled with six layers of containers. At the same time, ordinary cargo ships use the most common low-speed diesel engines in pursuit of economy, even at full speed. That is, the speed of more than ten knots, and under normal circumstances, its speed is only about six or seven knots.
This cargo ship seems to be indifferent to the general fuel consumption. Since the island country is full of cargo, it has been sailing at maximum speed. The cargo ship’s engine emits puffs of black smoke, which continues to rise from the chimney toward the back. A cargo ship with a diesel engine was forced out of it by them with the feeling of a steam engine.
On the bridge, Captain Markrov, is staring at the route ahead.
"Captain, it's too much fuel for us to drive like this." A chief officer next to him said to him.
Markrov nodded: "Yes, but there are goods on board that the shipper needs urgently. We need to transport them in the shortest possible time. The pursuit is time, not fuel consumption. Don't worry. I gave this order. Fuel consumption is our trouble, and all responsibility is mine."
Xiong’s system is different from that of the West. Everything is publicly owned, and cargo ships are also owned by the country. Now, cargo ships consume too much fuel and the competent authorities are also asking for trouble.
In the entire ship, only the captain knew what was on it, and the people under him just thought it was an ordinary voyage. Therefore, it is excusable to object to his order.
As long as the responsibility is his, others don't need to say anything.
"Yes, ahead, we are about to reach the South Han Guohai." The chief officer continued.
When the route went down, it would pass through the South Han Sea. The tortuous and complicated route of this part of the route, however, made Markrov breathe a sigh of relief because he could finally leave the control area of ​​Eagle Country. The next route will be much safer.
"All crew, continue to be vigilant." Markrov said: "We must ensure that our course is correct."
There are submerged reefs everywhere here, and it is necessary to walk along the channel accurately. Once there is a deviation, the reef may be hit. After all, the water here is too shallow.
If it is an empty ship, it doesn’t matter. A fully loaded cargo ship has a very deep draft. At the same time, the hull moves slowly. It is difficult to change the course and must be prepared in advance.
Macrov shouted that if he were a teenager, he would jump on the observation deck to observe.
Above the bridge is the observation deck, where there is a high-precision maritime telescope to observe the sea surface. At the same time, a crew member walks through the densely packed containers to the position of the bow and observes there. It is also the easiest to see of.
In this way, Markrov was cautious, knowing that he must not make any mistakes this time.
At the same time, due to the busy channel here, there may also be some opposing ships, all of which need to be carefully avoided.
One day has passed like this, sailing at night, then you have to be more careful.
Macrov's eyes were a little red. It was already ten o'clock in the evening. He looked at the sea in the distance. Now, there are very few ships in the channel.
"Captain, you go to rest, I'll be on duty." The first officer said to Makroff.
Markrov nodded, and just about to go down, suddenly, a bright light appeared on the opposite side.
Damn, what's the opposite? The two blocked the opposite light with their hands, trying to see clearly.
Sailing at sea also has basic international regulations. For night navigation, there are strict lighting regulations. For example, a cargo ship like this must have a masthead light in the front, a second masthead light in the back, and two side lights on both sides. , There is a tail light behind.
In this way, when the other side saw it, he knew it was a large ship.
But now, one's own lights are normal, but the other's lights are abnormal, and one's own side can't see anything clearly.
"It's a trawler!" Just then, a watchman on the mast shouted.
Damn, what light did they hang on? Makaroff was very angry. If it were a trawler, he should have two circular lights vertically. The top is green and the bottom is white, or a number type composed of two cones that are vertical and butt-pointed. Now, if you don't see anything, you can know that it is something shining!
This is a busy channel, and it is at night. Who would have thought that they would actually fish in this sea area at this time! These people are too much!
Macrov wanted to curse, but at this moment, he suddenly heard a dull voice from the engine compartment at the rear. not good!
When he heard this sound, Makaroff felt his heart tremble. It was the sound of the propeller tangling the fishing net!
"Quick, the propeller stops turning, then reverses, reverses!"
Fishing boats and cargo ships are inherently opposed, and both sides are full of contradictions.
For fishing boats, the nets and fishing operations are for food and survival. Wherever there are fish, you can get off the nets, oh no matter what channel you have or not. The propeller of the cargo ship broke their fishing nets and prevented them from fishing. It was their enemy.
For a cargo ship, sailing well, it suddenly gets wrapped in fishing nets. In severe cases, it may even cause the ship to capsize. Who will pay for this loss?
I was sailing well, who provoked whom?
Now Macrov feels very innocent, and his ship has encountered this situation!
At this moment, you can see the floating floating on the surrounding sea. This is the sign of the fishing net. Now, Makroff is about to cry without tears.
After the propeller is wrapped around the fishing net, the first step is to stop quickly, turn the propeller upside down, and exit as soon as it gets in.
Now, the roar of the tail engine started again, and the propeller turned upside down. Macrov hoped to get rid of the fishing net wrapped around the propeller. However, the good times did not last long. Soon, his engine became suffocated again. This time, he was suffocated. After a few times, it stopped!
No, Macrov knows that this is the propeller completely circumventing the fishing net, this is a big trouble!
"Hey, hello, you bad guys!" At this moment, the fishing boat also felt something was wrong. It had already set off the net for fishing, and it was time to take it back. Who would have thought that the net was smashed by the cargo ship!
The cost of fishing nets is also very high. This time I thought I could catch a good fish, but who would have thought that it would be disturbed by this cargo ship, and the fish that had been caught in the net would not be able to be caught. They must be compensated!
