Winchester Crown Court heard today how three experienced yachtsmen may have survived had a P&O ferry officer offered assistance following a near miss or collision. Ship’s officer Michael Hubble denied manslaughter charges.
Christopher Parker QC, prosecuting, said that the officer of the watch “chose to ignore” that his 37,583gt Pride of Bilbao had come very close to the yacht Ouzo off the Isle of Wright, reported the BBC.
