Too funny (but not for some).  Dropping the anchor is pretty much the first thing you should do with a ship in distress, especially if it is near shore.  If nothing else it helps stabilize it for rescue and recovery.  Tripping into a lifeboat is pretty lame.  I think this guy (especially with the Italian courts) is going away for a long time.

The Italian Coast Guard captain in charge of the rescue has become a national hero. Good on him!  :good:

A hilarious excuse to read about. However the fact he said that is sickening, but what would you expect form a spineless b***ard like him.  >:(
