Now it has a crack on the starboard side, too... That is going to be a major yard period!

Not surprising for the hit it took, I am sure they will find many more issues as they get to work.

I thought that MCC would be better off than FITZ, since the hit was less severe. Apparently not. Granted the FITZ's superstructure has been twisted out of alignment, which will be a huge repair...

LT Brad McInnis Not really surprised by this. At least they found it sooner rather than later.

Definitely you will find issue after another, very similar to getting into a fender bender in a car.
