Introduction
The Exxon Valdez is enormous as As wide as a football field and three times as long the ship carries more than 50 million gallons of crude oil in its vast holds. But this giant is manned by a crew of just 20 people which means there's a long list of duties and tasks that fall to the captain or Joe. The waters of Prince William Sound are full of dangerous icebergs this time of year And that's why before he left the bridge Joe instructed Gregory to sail south out of the normal shipping route and into less treacherous water. If they go too far in the wrong direction the ship could crash into the underwater rocks of Blight reef.
