I read it was a 40knot wind + sandstorm. Radar would have been about as
useful as our radios as in why bother to turn it on. Plus any idea how
much surface area that thing had? In a 40 knot gale? My question is,
what were they doing with anchors if they weren't deploying them?

Since every ship transits the canal with a certified pilot on
board, I want to know the story from the pilot. As soon as they
assume responsibility on the bridge it’s their problem.
Thank you,

You see, the root cause is that the canal is only 200 meters wide.
If they had dredged it to 450 meters, that sucker could have done
a little spin.
The other solution would be to only allow ships that are < 200
meters long.
