 Plymouth Sound Cruising - Iffy
...the skipper of the bowbelle was not drunk...

Maybe not, but on his own account:

"The captain of the dredger involved in the Marchioness Thames riverboat tragedy has said he spent the afternoon drinking before starting work.
"Douglas Henderson, 42, former skipper of the Bowbelle, told the public inquiry into the disaster that he had visited five pubs and consumed six pints of beer in five hours."
