Kaptain, do you give radio commands to the tug? Or do you have to actually drive the boat yourself? Does it simulate damage that would occur if you collided with the push-zone too fast?

What about the tow lines. What kind of simulation goes behind getting those hooked up? Do you drag the rope from the tug to the boat and then there's just a 20-minute wait until it's hooked up? Or do you have to actually fire the shotgun and get the stringers back and forth?

And how about crew stuff-ups? Do you find the engineer passed out behind the boiler control panel with an oil can full of bourbon?
