A bit premature to declare so, don't you think? What if it comes out that corners were cut regarding engine maintenance or something along those lines?

A bit premature to declare so, don't you think? What if it comes out that corners were cut regarding engine maintenance or something along those lines?
- gbil 3y agoexactly, is there already an official verdict sourcing from official investigation? I don't think so Furthermore, the engine is part of the vessel, if the verdict is that the engine failed then the vessel owner/insurance can claim any penalties(plus extras) from the engine manufacturer

- nashashmi 3y agoThat will have to be an argument that is made and it will be a difficult argument to make. “Engine was not maintained well” is so deeply opinionated. The first thing they do is check standards. Was it oiled? Were the parts replaced periodically? Was the fuel type correct? It could be a mistake. “What kind of engine?” “It needs this type of fuel.” “Oops, no, that was for the older ship. This is a different ship.” “The ship already set sail.” “Nevermind then and keep your mouth shut.”
