This part is so critical that it doesn’t fail because all the electrical controls fail due to water.
That said, this is the third or fourth vid I've watched on this channel alone where the captain ignored forecasts bc money and almost got people killed.
Cruise lines need a new rule--if the captain fucks up, he goes overboard.
