Simulated comparison of manoeuvres
 The effect from position of close quarters encounter with fv Nordhinder:
a) Main engine full astern
b) Hard a-starboard and main engine full ahead
a) Vessel ran aground outside the channel at heading 198°at approx 2kts.
 Ran a distance of 262 m with engine running full astern until grounding at 2kts.
b) Vessel remained in the deep water, but at southerly limit of the channel.
 Ran a distance of 170 m before regaining a track in deep water.
