摘要

About 0428 e.s.t. on January 18, 1978, the M/B SIDS sank in the Atlantic Ocean about 2 nmi offshore from Absecon Inlet, Atlantic City, New Jersey. The SIDS' steering system had failed, and the vessel was being towed to the Atlantic City harbor by a Coast Guard 41-ft utility boat. When a large wave broke over the utility boat's starboard side, the utility boat rolled about 45 deg. to port and the crewmen were thrown to the deck. When the crewmen recovered, the SIDS was no longer in sight and the towline was slack. Both persons on board the SIDS died. The SIDS washed up on the Atlantic City beach several hours later. The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of the accident was the capsizing of the M/B SIDS because of the severe flooding and overturning moment caused by a large wave which broke over the vessel's starboard side. Contributing to the accident were a steering system failure of undetermined cause and the crew's decision to depart Atlantic City during adverse weather.
