The armed forces have said they are evaluating whether it is possible to repair the 5,290 ton Helge Ingstad or whether they will need to order a replacement frigate.

Will they get a courtesy boat whilst theirs is in for repair?

I'm disappointed that there's no mention of t-cut and "it'll buff out".

Cant see how they can repair it after its been holed, sunk, pushed onto rocks and then submerged for months?

They need to make sure they don't get fobbed off with a minesweeper and then billed for it.

Pretty damming of the training of the navy personell and the shore VTS. Nice to see a tanker not getting blamed for everything. I'm slighty biased.....

Frigate mistook TS Sola for a stationary object with strong lights !!!

There's this wonderful invention called radar, it's been around and now it will even plot the targets automatically. They could even take a bearing or god forbid use the mark one eyeball and squint.

They used the mark one eyeball and failed.

If I was a frigate captain I'd try to avoid all objects whether stationary or not!

What an almighty fk up. The skipper being in his scratcher when the vessel is in a narrow channel is pretty damning.
