Boats Collide Head On
Clear sky, looks like unlimited visibility, and these two rather large boats collide head-on.
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=ee5_1227370683 I'm not a ship captain so I don't know all the rules. Who's fault was it? |

Looks like a case of not paying attention or too many "macho" captains not wanting to alter course.

That crunch sound is one sickening sound!
 I think the boat off the starboard bow was at fault. I think you're suppose to go starboard-to-starboard when passing by. |

You are supposed to go starboard in case of a head-on collision

I read once that you are supposed to yield to boats approaching from starboard, which would put the boat the camera is on at fault.
