Ott Description Of A Crewman 'savage' ?
If the crew man,as said in the report, was oblivious that he was waving a foam hand at late arrival passengers , it is a bit strong to call the action 'Savage' don't you think?
I am sure that hand has been waved at every port departure of that ship with no malice or savagery intended.
If the passengers are given a deadline to arrive back at the ship 45 minutes before anchor is weighed then it is not the fault of the captain to leave to a deadline. The tidal range of that port has to be considered by the Navigation Officer particularly in shallow waters. Why should a ship have to be held in port perhaps for another 12 or 24 hours to catch a following tide.?

I am aware of passengers and crews responsibilities to be on time when leaving port that is why I have stated that the description that savagery was involved was OTT. I repeat that the report stated the crewman was oblivious of the passengers absence but I would assume the purser had informed the skipper they were two passengers light on the passenger list as obliged by maritime regulations.

I see nothing 'savage' in the action.
All cruise passengers are advised that, if they are on independent shore excursions and they are late, the ship will depart on time, without them.
The exception is made for passengers who are on excursions booked with the ship's company, in that case, the ship will delay if they are late back due to circumstances beyond the control of the excursion team.
