Oops, the Veendam can't dock at St. George, Bermuda. I would have
thought they would have checked this before now....

That's a very stupid oops... especially given the "triple whammy" they
mentioned (no more ships, no hotel, and the golf course being closed).
Bermuda has always given the ships a bit of a hard time, but now it seems
that their "attitude" is haunting them big time.

Time to get out some dredging equipment and deepen and widen the Town Cut.
That cut should be able to accommodate 70,000 ton ships to help bring the
economy back. No need for Voyager size ships there, but
Century/LegendOTS/SplendorOTS size ships should be allowed to go there.

Aren't those the things used to keep unemployed environmentalists
and lawyers wealthy?

Yes and idiots like Tom K. from raping the seas and land so he can get
his big-assed cruise ship fix in Bermuduh.
