That is the most absurd thing I have seen in a long time.

PS. Could you imagine what it might have been like to be the first cruiser - you and missus told the kids you were going off to the boat to a summer 'clean down' only to get drawn under the stern and trapped by the rudder, all the while the massive prop swinging away underneath you!!!

Did the ship have a major loss of power leading to this?

I'd like to know what the guy walking around the deck was doing

At least he didn't run it aground. ;D
