Case study-2. Very Near Miss
Own ship, a British registered container feeder vessel, running from Jeddah to Aqaba with a Russian crew, plus British Master and Chief Engineer. The other ship was a ferry, probably running from Jeddah to Egypt. Weather calm, clear, good visibility. Daylight, early afternoon, local time. Little traffic, plenty of sea room.
Own vessel sailed from Jeddah in the late morning bound for Aqaba, making about 12.8 knots eventually on a course of 328. Other vessel sailed somewhat later, making about 2 knots more than us. Shortly before noon I noted the ferry on the quarter slowly overtaking us. I went down for lunch at about 1230, noted the ferry through the messroom porthole a couple of points abaft the port beam, she looked to be paralleling us at about a mile off. I looked up again a short while later and the ferry was a couple of cables off, heading towards us and closing rapidly. I went directly to the bridge where the 2/O was talking to the ferry on the VHF. The ferry was telling us to slow down so that he could pass ahead of us. I put the wheel to hand and went hard a starboard, telling the 2/O that I had taken control of the watch. At this stage the ferry was about a cable away. We swung away rapidly and the ferry said thanks.
