I don't know, but I suspect we don't hear much about all the times power is lost at moments that are less than the worst.
- toss1 3y agoEXACTLY!! If it happens often, and they just restart because it's no big deal in the ocean, we wouldn't hear about it. Of course, it seems that a high(er) frequency of failures should be taken into account for zones where it is critical, such as in port. I just saw a few days ago that a ship docking took out a couple of cargo cranes (sadly, badly injuring a crane operator); didn't seem like a power outage, more of a misjudged steering.
