Feng Ye frowned slightly, his anger rising.
Grass!
These people have absolutely no sense of safety.
When ships meet at sea, they should maintain a safe distance to prevent accidents.
Moreover, the Dong Sheng was a fishing boat, and it was towing fishing nets.
Moreover, they are traveling in opposite directions, so if someone gets tangled in their fishing nets, it would be a huge problem.
The trawl net might be rendered useless.
There was still a net full of fish in there, so the loss was considerable.
A surge of anger rose within Feng Ye, and he shouted loudly at the yacht, "Hey, why are you getting so close? Get away from here, it's dangerous..."
Meanwhile, Ah-chan in the wheelhouse was also using the radio to make calls on a public channel, urging the yacht to maintain a safe distance and avoid danger.
However, the radio station did not respond.
It's unclear whether the people on the yacht didn't hear it, or if they did hear it but didn't take it seriously.
In short, the yacht did not change direction and continued to sail past the Dong Sheng.
"Grass……"
Feng Ye was even more furious and shouted again, "Hey, did you hear me? Get the boat further away right now..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw the yacht, for reasons unknown, turn around and try to go around the Dong Sheng from behind.
Damn it!
Feng Ye's heart tightened, and he knew something was wrong.
If the yacht had continued on its original course, it might have simply gotten tangled in fishing nets.
So, in this way, the probability will increase infinitely, almost to the point of 100%.
The yacht was passing right next to the stern of the Dong Sheng, at a distance of only about thirty meters.
I don't know if the person driving the yacht is blind, but they can't see the tow rope extending from the stern into the water.
Feng Ye was extremely anxious and shouted again, "Hey, are you crazy? Can't you see our fishing nets? Turn around and drive away right now..."
Ye Chenliang and Du Yulin also saw the yacht's dangerous actions, and the two were extremely anxious, shouting together.
However, no matter how much they shouted, the people on the yacht seemed not to hear them and continued to laugh and joke.
The yacht showed no sign of slowing down or turning.
As the yacht drew ever closer to the towline, a helpless Feng Ye had no choice but to change his strategy.
If the yacht doesn't respond to warnings, then they'll have to find a way to avoid it.
He shouted loudly into the driver's seat, "Ah Can, speed up! Get the speed up!"
He could only hope that the Dong Sheng would pick up speed and increase the distance between it and the yacht.
This allows the tow line to be in deeper water when the yacht passes by.
This way, they might be able to avoid getting snagged on the yacht.
Hearing Feng Ye's anxious shouts, Ah Can knew the situation was urgent and immediately stepped on the gas.
However, it takes time for a ship to accelerate; it's not like a car where you can instantly pick up speed with a single press of the accelerator.
Moreover, the Dong Sheng is a large ship, and accelerating is not so easy.
Stopping the ship to give way would be even more inadvisable.
Given the size of the Dong Sheng and its immense inertia, it would be impossible for it to stop immediately.
Boats don't have brakes.
"Are these guys out of their minds? Can't they see we're still trawling the nets?"
"What should we do? If the fishing line gets tangled in the yacht, the fishing net will be ruined."
"What else can we do? Just let it be..."
Feng Ye had no other choice.
We've done everything we could; as for the outcome, let fate decide!
Seeing that the two of them were still trying to run to the stern, he quickly stopped them: "Don't go to the stern, let's stay away from it."
If it really gets tangled, the girder will definitely be pulled, and it might even be torn apart.
When the broken cable breaks, it will lash out like a whip, and that's no joke.
Here, the speed of the Dong Sheng has just increased.
Over there, the yacht had already rushed to the vicinity of the towline.
"It's over!"
Feng Ye's heart sank as he watched helplessly as the bow of the yacht swept past the position of the tow line in the water.
His heart was in his throat as he prayed that the yacht would make it across safely.
However, things did not go as planned.
The yacht suddenly stopped and its speed dropped sharply.
The people on the yacht were completely unprepared and lost their footing, falling haphazardly onto the deck.
One of the two towing lines that were originally on either side of the Dong Sheng was suddenly pulled to the middle of the stern, making a creaking sound.
It is obviously subjected to a great force.
Even the Dong Sheng was pulled and trembled slightly.
Feng Ye's expression changed drastically, and he secretly realized he was in trouble.
As expected, it came.
Judging from the appearance, it is very likely that the yacht's propeller has become entangled with the towing cable.
"Ah-Can, stop the boat."
Feng Ye immediately shouted loudly towards the driver's seat.
"knew."
Ah-Can guessed the outcome from the moment the Dong Sheng trembled, and immediately reduced the throttle to zero, slowing down and stopping the ship.
However, at this moment, the Dong Sheng continued to move forward due to inertia.
Meanwhile, the yacht's driver, for some unknown reason, made no move, and the engine was still roaring.
Feng Ye was furious. How could he have run into such a bunch of idiots?
If this continues, either the tow line will break, the propeller will be ruined, or even the yacht's engine may be damaged.
Don't underestimate the traction rope of a trawl net; it's not an ordinary rope, but a reinforced steel wire rope, which has high strength and toughness.
"Turn off the engine quickly..."
As soon as Feng Ye finished speaking, a loud "bang" was heard.
Then, the taut tow rope, as if severed by a sharp sword, instantly shrank back onto the ship.
"Holy crap..."
Feng Ye was startled and secretly rejoiced that he had the foresight not to run to the stern.
Ye Chenliang and Du Yulin were also quite frightened when they saw the half of the girder bounce back.
If they hadn't listened to the advice, they would probably have already been whipped by the spear, and even if they weren't dead, they would have been badly injured.
Meanwhile, although the yacht was freed from its restraints, no matter how loudly the engine roared, it did not pick up any speed and remained stationary.
Clearly, there was a major problem with the propeller.
The yacht lost power.
Only then did the people on the yacht realize what was happening, and they stood there, looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Damn it, a bunch of idiots..."
Feng Ye couldn't help but curse, his heart filled with rage.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
At this point, getting angry won't help.
The most important thing now is to get the yacht company to compensate us for our losses.
A rigging wire isn't cheap; buying just one costs a lot of money.
The key issue is that there are no spares on board; it will take eight or nine hours to reach the shore before you can buy them.
This round trip takes more than ten hours.
The losses involved are substantial, and the party at fault must definitely be held liable for compensation.
Moreover, it's questionable whether the net can be retrieved using only the remaining tow line.
If we can't collect them...
