The pilot did well. He had no choice as to when the ships systems started failing. When He or she knew something was up the call was made for a tug. And a tug, in minutes could, if nearby, could push the bow of the ship in a direction to avoid the bridge. Apparently a tug wasn’t close enough to the ship to make it there.
At 1:30a, everyone is sound asleep tucked in for the cold night.it takes 30 minutes to get a tug operational from a cold start, not to mention the crew. I believe, the transition procedure in and out of port for large ships will require a tug escort, maybe 2. At 100,000 tons, 1 tug won’t be enough.
