>>the outcome has demonstrated that the Fitzgerald demonstrated insufficient prudence.<<
If I can comment on my own post, BOTH vessels demonstrated insufficient prudence.
That being said, one of the vessels was SUPPOSED to yield to the other...and having one vessel cut in front of another vessel that was on its starboard side seems more than a little wrong.
