The pilot of
a freighter that caused a huge oil spill in the
San Francisco Bay was confused about where
he was headed and immediately regretted setting
off that foggy morning, according to transcripts
released Tuesday. The first day of the hearing
focused on procedures at the port and onboard
ship that morning where Cota, a pilot who
boarded locally, was working with a
Chinese-speaking crew and a master who'd never
been in the San Francisco-Oakland port. The
captain and three crew members also refused to
testify, though Cota is the only person charged
in the accident. Transcripts of the voyage data
recorder show the pilot and crew struggling in
English and Chinese to read navigational devices
amid anxiety about thick fog. Apr 8,
