Seemed like the same scenario at the Dames Point (but on a smaller scale).

Its amazing that they approached the bridge at full speed in order to keep the ship lower in the water.  Man... the slightest miscalculation of less than a meter and WACK!!!!

That was probably the most tense moment in many of their lives.  That would have been an Expensive miscalculation.  Gotta love those engineers.

What's also incredible is that the bottom was more than sixty-five feet under the ship's bottom and the flipping thing is so HUGE that there was still bottom suction action.  Just boggles the mind!
