Ship's Captain is right handed,
Here is a kust if potential reasons why ship is docked on starboard side:
1. Captain is right handed.
2. Ship's cranes don't have adequate capacity to lift cargo.
3. Ship's hull is wedge shaped an thus too deep at stern to dock stern-in.
4. Ship's crew were on holiday touring Rock Hall.
5. The Merchant Marine Act of 1920 (aka the Jones Act).
6. Other reason(s).
