1/First off, hats off to everyone for getting all the passengers off #SpiritOfNorfolk. Top-notch job by the crew and that of #VictoryRover.

Based on reports and photos, it appears that the fire started in the engine room. You can see the smoke from back aft.

2/#SpiritOfNorfolk obviously lost power as she drifted into the path of the bulker, Spar Lyra.

That ship caught a buoy on her stern and two Moran tugs, chartered by @MSCSealift to provide towing services at the base had to assist the vessel from evading the containment boom.
3/In a press briefing that afternoon, the Fed Fire Chief noted that they had adopted a defensive stance.

Due to the flooding from firefighting, and the location of the fire in the engine room, they were not permitting personal on board due to risk.
