Main entrance: Costa Concorde hit the rocks.
On 20 1 265438+1October 13, the cruise ship Costa Concorde ran aground on the Italian coast at night, and then quickly tilted into the water, resulting in cracks150 meters long. At the time of the accident, there were about 4,234 people on the cruise ship, including more than 3,000 tourists from dozens of countries and regions and 1000 crew members.
On September 23rd, 20 13, the Italian court in Grosse held a hearing on the case of Costa Concorde crashing on the rocks. During the trial, Schettino, the former captain of Concorde, appeared as the only defendant. During the trial, he accused Indonesian helmsman Jakobo of causing the shipwreck: "At that time, I ordered the helmsman to turn left. At that time, the bow was accelerating obliquely to the right, and he didn't execute the order immediately. Slow action is the cause of the accident. If he hadn't made the mistake of delaying turning to the left, there wouldn't have been a severe blow. Under the influence of the double rudder, the speed in the diagonal direction of the hull can be corrected to the straight direction, so that the double propeller hull will be adjusted around the rudder page. According to my experience, the cruise ship will stop. " The purpose of Schettino's appeal is to convince the jury that the shipwreck could have been avoided if the helmsman had carried out the captain's instructions in time and accurately. However, Italian Admiral Giuseppe Cavard Lagenai, who was in charge of investigating the cause of the shipwreck, pointed out in court that the helmsman was delayed by 13 seconds when executing the instructions, but he thought that the delay of 13 seconds could not avoid the accident.
