最近，西英保赔协会处理了两起索赔，分别是一艘集装箱船和一艘油轮在引航离港时莫名地失去了控制所造成的。其中，一艘船随后与石油码头发生碰撞，对泊位正面造成显著损毁，而另一艘在离开通航航道时，撞上了一个灯塔后搁浅在海底管道的顶部。这两起事故均引起了高额的索赔。

在两起事故中，船舶均沿驶出港口的惯常航线航行，由于船速相对缓慢及驾驶台团队当时未知的原因，它们开始转向，直到发生碰撞时，几乎已与原航向垂直。两艘船都无法停止转向，其中，一艘船在使用艏侧推力器的同时，反向打满了舵；而另一艘船，尽管主机已使用全满舵全速前进。

Ship Handling Incidents at Low Speed

The Club has experienced two claims recently where, in separate incidents, a container vessel and a tanker inexplicably lost control whilst departing port under pilotage. One vessel subsequently made contact with an oil jetty causing notable damage to the face of the berth, while the other left the navigable channel, struck a light beacon, then ran aground on top of a submarine pipeline. Both incidents led to considerable claims.

In each case the vessels were following the customary route outbound from the port concerned, when, at relatively slow speed and due to reasons unknown to the bridge team at the time, they started to turn such that they were almost perpendicular to their original course by the time they made contact. Neither vessel was able to stop the turn by, in one case, applying full opposite rudder along with the use of the bow thruster, and in the other, despite using full ahead on the main engine with full rudder.
