  • Who do you think is at fault for the sinking? Owner, captain or the tow company?

    @BoatZone@BoatZone Жыл бұрын
    • The salvage company was at fault! Definitely should’ve had pumps on board before and during the tow!!! Too many “salvage” companies don’t care enough about the vessels that they are recovering…it appears that the repairs would’ve been fairly minimal compared to the $1.5M value…it appears that it wasn’t immersed too deep therefore minimal damage to above the waterline components 🤦‍♂️

    • the boats doing the towing looked like tugs, maybe no actual salvage people were invovled. Once it started going under, they should have stopped towing, probably could have towed from rear (maybe) A simple tarp wrap under the keel would have kept the 'pump effect' from towing work. Another post here says he saw some salvagers put rubber ballons inside a boat where the hole were on it, and THAT kept the boat from sinking when towed as there was no way for water to get inside the boat.

  • Circa 1992... I was on a lobster diving charter boat that went to Catalina with about 25 divers (sleep aboard) and the captain fell asleep on the way back around sunrise. We hit the breakwall in San Pedro, CA (about a 1/4 mile from shore) and the boat was pinned up on the rocks. We all bailed off the boat onto the rocks with our dive gear and waited for some boats to shuttle us off to shore. The salvage team that showed up put huge rubber baffles in the boat and aired them up, forcing out any water inside the boat and making it impossible to sink. When they pulled it off the rocks, it did not sink and they were able to safely move it to a nearby boat yard for repairs. Obviously, the salvage company in Oahu that moved this yacht had no clue about what they were doing and we're talking 31 years after my own experience on that dive boat returning form Catalina. You would think the technology would have come a long way, but...

The moment you are hooked up, you're responsible for any damage from that point forward, unless it's already clearly a total and completely loss - which it most definitely was not at that point. This video footage is gonna be damning evidence against the salvage company for complete and total incompetence. That doesn't get the capt and owners off the hook for their stupidity. However, their stupidity did not DIRECTLY cause the total loss of the vessel. Just the environmental damages, and fines for the illegal stuff.

  • Once the salvage company ties onto the boat, it's their baby to take care of, so they are responsible for the sinking. They should have had some pumps working and large floats holding it up since they knew it was taking on water. It is likely that more hull damage was incurred by being dragged in the sideways arc. The debris was from the dragging of the boat. Rocking back and forth on the beach probably just caused punctures and cracks. You could see the discoloration in the water caused by the scraping of the seafloor. That's where the debris came from.

  • Given the size of that boat and the damage it sustained, the only option was to lift it out of the water. Waiting an extra day or so for a ship equipped with the proper crane and rigging gear to do so would have created much less havoc in the area.

  • To all who are criticising the salvage operators: Please look up the definition of "salvage". The purpose of a salvage operation is not to "save the boat" or repair it to a seaworthy state. The purpose is to recover/remove the vessel only. The owners and insurance companies had already written the vessel off as a loss. And as a former navy sailor, trained in damage control, you who criticize have obviously NEVER had to patch a hull breach beneath the waterline. This is difficult with a steel hull, near impossible with a fiberglass hull, while ship is in water.

  • I love boats and I love the ocean. I retired from the Navy. I have taken boater safety courses and I am pretty good at navigation. Since retiring I have only been able to afford to own one boat. She was a beat-up old thing that I restored and used for diving and fishing, for a lot of years.. I miss her. When I see all of these beautiful boats on here, and the stupid things people do with them I wonder why. How can someone spend all that money to buy a beautiful boat and then go out and wreck it by doing something foolish? There are many like me who would love to have a beautiful boat, who would operate it safely and correctly, and who would cherish it and take care of it. I have come to the conclusion that there are too many idiots out there with too much money and too little brains.

Industrial oxygen tanks for welding and torch cutting operations are not designed to be used horizontally, using them on their side can cause them to leak or cause a malfunction of the regulator. Both are dangerous situations. The salvage company was using industrial oxygen tank in support of the underwater arc cutting.

  • I wondered why large pumps, plywood sheets, and floatation bladders were not put aboard or installed when the salvage operation began. It would be one of the first things I did. Keep the water out as you being to get it floating again. Beyond that, it appears the rest of the salvage was done correctly with the bridle installation and also cutting away the running gear obstructions. HOWEVER...one other thing: there was apparently an advanced fixed price arrangement for the work. Therefore there was no "Lloyd's Open" (no cure, no pay) agreement. That alone would remove all incentive to get her back to port in one piece. That reasoning would be "...it's better to have the $460k gross than 1/2 of whatever she could be worth brought in." Just sayin'..
