Ship crews are a weird thing. During covid there were a lot of ships idle with crews stuck on board for months.

@jonhendry @drahardja I read the book "Ninety Percent of Everything" a couple years back - the whole world of container ships is wild and not surprisingly, the working conditions/protections are not good. still, pretty surprised how bad this particular situation is

At least it's a big ship so they might be able to get away from each other when they want. And I think they can get some supplies delivered from shore.

@jonhendry @clifff It still sucks to be stuck on a ship for months without communication with the outside world.
