Back in the day, they used to run fire warps just for this situation, I suppose they have to just hope & wait for the tugs nowadays.

Possibly chavez was giving a day long speech and his microphone overheated

The fire was on the dock, not the ship;nNo-one was hurt; the ship suffered no significant damage and was towed to safety. A bit of a non-event, really, but it made for some sensational photos!

Wow very impressive shot German, hope nobody had been hurt! Did lady Sonia survive the fire....I think fire on board a ship most be the most frihgtened experience you ever want to live.
Thanks a lot to share that series of amazing pictures,
