Summary
Investigation of Muros’s grounding on Haisborough Sand examines an unapproved revised passage plan, electronic chart scale, disabled warning functions and reduced watchkeeper alertness. ECDIS replay and simulations explored route checking and safety-contour alarm behaviour. Rudder damage required towing for repair; no injuries or pollution occurred.
