The Dover Seaways hit the harbour wall at about 08:00 GMT

Four people were injured when a cross-channel ferry leaving Dover for France hit a harbour wall.

The Dover Seaways struck the dock as it departed for Dunkirk at 08:00 GMT. Passengers and crew were evacuated from the DFDS vessel.

Paramedics said four people were taken to hospital with "bumps and bruises".

A spokeswoman for the ferry company said: "We would like to underline that passenger safety is of paramount importance to us."

"We're working hard with all passengers and relevant authorities to provide assistance to those involved," she added.

The ferry is currently being assessed for repairs and has been berthed at the Eastern Docks.

One eyewitness told the Dover Express: "The ship's rudders went 30 degrees to starboard but by time they got to the entrance it was too late.

"It must have hit at about eight knots (10mph)."

'Apologise to passengers'

South East Coast Ambulance Service said the injured were taken to the William Harvey Hospital in Ashford.

"None of them are thought to have suffered life-threatening or serious injuries," a spokesperson said.

Carsten Jensen, senior vice president of DFDS Seaways, said: "All 320 passengers and freight have now disembarked the vessel and those who chose to continue their journey have been accommodated on other ferries.

"I would like to apologise to all passengers and freight customers who have been affected by this incident."

The Port of Dover said an investigation would begin to find out what happened.

Sea conditions in the English Channel were slight to moderate and visibility was good just before the ferry set off on its journey.

Δέν βλέπω πάντως να έπαθε μεγάλη ζημιά το πλοίο,προφανώς επειδή έπλεε με μικρή ταχύτητα.

Μυστήριο πάντως το γιατί συνέβη.Από την θέση που βρίσκεται το πλοίο,υποψιάζομαι πως μάλλον πήγε να στρίψη δεξιά νωρίτερα απ'ό,τι έπρεπε.Αλλά η ορατότητα ήταν καλή-πώς και δέν τον είδανε νωρίτερα κοτζάμ τοίχο;

Να υποθέσουμε ότι κόλλησαν τα πηδάλια;

το πλοιο καρφωθηκε με την πλωρη στον κυματοθραυστη. εφαγε βολβο, βαση για το linkspan και σταματησε ακαριαια τραυματιζοντας κοσμο. το πιο σοβαρο θα ηταν να υπαρξει νεκρος. φανταστειτε να πηγαινετε με το ΙΧ με 20χλμ  χωρις ζωνη και να πεσετε σε τοιχο. σκεφτειτε τι θα παθαινατε.

 

οσο για το αν πηγε να στριψει δεξια και εκανε αριστερα ενω ειχε καλο καιρο, να θυμισω οτι μιλαμε για τη Μαγχη που εχει παλιρροιες και ομιχλες.

 

εχουμε ενα θεματακι παντως με το πηγε να στριψει δεξια και εκανε αριστερα

 

 


 
Λάθος χειρισμός τού πηδαλιούχου (ήθελε να στρίψη δεξιά γιά να "ανοίξη" την απόσταση μεταξύ τών δύο πλοίων αλλά μπερδεύτηκε κι'εστριψε αριστερά);
