Is that the same ship in all three pics? One seems to have shipping containers on it, and one doesn't. But that might have an angle of shot/zoom lens explanation.

No, different ships all day

Here is another pic... all of these pics were posted on a sports fishing forum
There is one comment saying this boat and occupants escaped safely,
but was later ticketed by the Coast Guard for "not giving way" under (Rule 9).

Quote:

A vessel of less than 20 meters in length or a sailing vessel shall
not impede the passage of a vessel which can safely navigate only
within a narrow channel or fairway.

Angry drivers, both licensed to carry concealed weapons, shoot each other

Quote:

IONIA, Mich. — Two armed Michigan drivers died after they
apparently “stood their ground” against each other Wednesday.
<snip>
Witnesses told the station that one man was following another man’s car too closely.
After some hostilities, the first driver pulled into a car wash parking lot and the other driver parked near him.
The driver of the following car drew a gun, prompting the other man to do the same.
They both opened fire, killing each other.
