A cargo ship crew member fell asleep on watch as the vessel ran aground in 2021, a new report found. Members of the ship's crew had been drinking onboard prior to the incident, per the report. An alarm sounded 15 times as the crew member on watch was recorded snoring, per the report. He subsequently invited three other crew members back to his cabin for an "informal wake," including the second officer, a 37-year-old Ukrainian national. The crew members drank beer and Jägermeister in the man's cabin for about three hours, the report found.
