Golden Ray: Still no cause determined


 While a consortium of agencies, including the U.S. Coast Guard, salvage companies, and contractors work to cut the Golden Ray into eight pieces, an investigation into what happened a year ago is also underway. From an ABC News report on those hearings:

Both the Golden Ray's captain, Gi Hak Lee, and Brunswick-based harbor pilot Jonathan Tennant, who was steering the ship, testified last week the vessel began listing and overturned without warning, The Brunswick News reported.

“Everything was just as normal as could be, until it capsized,” Tennant, a harbor pilot with 20 years of experience, testified Friday. “It’s an unexplainable situation that I’ve never experienced as a captain.”
