Haight, then setting out to prove that even by the observations made aboard the Andrea Doria the two ships were not on parallel opposite courses to pass starboard-to-starboard, approached the witness chair and handed the captain a pad of plotting paper. He asked the captain to plot the radar observations, as remembered, aboard the Doria. Captain Calamai took the paper, looked at it and said softly, “It is the first time I see.” “Do you know how to use this kind of a plotting sheet?” asked Haight. “I am not very familiar because this is one work I let the officers do,” said Captain Calamai.
