    A large blue-hulled tanker vessel has sustained significant collision damage to its port side, with a large section of the hull visibly crushed, torn, and deformed. The damage appears to be a major impact zone where the steel plating has been pushed inward and downward, exposing structural deformation. The image was taken in foggy, low-visibility conditions on open water.
