    Once is an accident, twice indicates something systemic! Gotta be something going on here… Changing currents maybe?

      It’s two different operators! The first was Bluebridge, the second was Interislander. They are different companies, running different boats, from different wharfs.

      The wharfs are nearby, maybe the currents? It’s all within a very sheltered harbour though.

        There’s not really any significant currents in that part of the harbor, and it was pretty windy Sunday night. I think it’s more likely to be a coincidence.

        Also, this happened while docking, while Bluebridge did theirs on the way out of their berth.

        Bluebridge are probably a bit relieved, someone else has taken the heat off them.

          Conspiracy theory: Blue ridge orchestrated the whole thing to take the focus off them. You read it first here folks 😂
