Is it possible naivete ?
If you have ever been on a boat with a captain you might have an idea as to this jeckle and hyde behaviour.
In my experiences it seemed like an imaginary line was crossed once you are on the boat and have set out to sea and you cant get off it . Its well known among boating deckhands that within a short time or distance of the departure a boat captain will change markedly . You then become the subject of the captain...a type of slave.....servant....deckhand....
of varying degree .
These Captains are very good people until you go to sea with them and cross that line, which is soon after departure...
It may not be until you have done a few trips to sea, that you can clearly identify this procedure, that repeats itself over and over again with A Sea Captain .
Its similar to an abduction, when you stop to consider the vulnerable situation...A submarine is an underwater going vessel so a high level of trust should exist to start...
Was Peter Madsen reputed to be very trustworthy?
Did he groom the victim over time before this horrific murder ?
Did the victim even feel safe at all,
was it considered a little bit risky ?
Was KWs boyfriend nearby awaiting her safe return, unable to do anything?
So sad for the boyfriend also, the poor unfortunate friend of Kim....RiP
I have been on a fishing trawler, travelling for free.
The captain´s word was law, but he was actually OK.
There were two German girls on the four day trip to another country. They were soooo seasick all the way, and the captain gave me this job of making sure they ate some bisquits and drank water, that was all, and fair enough.
It spared the girls that some males came in and saw them in horrible condition!
So I guess I was the nurse on that trip!
Never heard of the captain syndrome either. It is interesting, and there probably are some a-holes out there abusing their power.
