Interesting. And strange.Capra, your facts are incorrect. Enterprise passed through the Golden Gate Bridge and the San Francisco Oakland bay bridge no sweat. She had an engineering casualty and lost the two stud shafts making the port turn into alameda very difficult. A slight flood tide and silting caused by recent heavy rains exacerbated the situation. The XO at the time urged the captain to drop anchor. They did run aground several hundred yards short of the turning basin. The XO and I had a long talk about it as he was later CO of Eisenhower when I was aboard with the air wing.
I was there and I saw it happen, including the diving operations to repair the underwater cables the ship cut when it grounded on the north side of the Golden Gate Bridge, heading for sea, and yet I can find nothing about the incident online. It was a decade or two before the 1983 grounding. I wasn't anywhere near Frisco in 1983. I don't know what to say.
