ship's insurance likely covers the cargo, and considering the cargo is stuck, it'll likely pay for whatever was aboard, especially anything that was perishable

@j_taylor

​@@TheAechBomb Would that vary in each case? For example, if I ordered some goods to be delivered, I might have insurance (even that depends on things like FOB). If I were moving and my personal belongings were in a container, that seems like a different insurance situation. And if I were the shipper, my insurance policy is likely different from the first two examples. Then we have the operator claiming damages from the cargo, right?

Criminal investigation and NTSB investigation, seen that did not end well. Here(Whatcom County, WA) when a Olympic pipeline gasoline pipe line blew up Whatcom Creek in Bellingham, immunity deals where handed out like candy to the involved parties to get them to testify before the NTSB. The result was even though there was demonstrable negligence no criminal charges where brought because the negligent parties had immunity. We the residents of Western Washington did get to pay off the companies civil fine in the form of increased fuel prices for ~ two years as a result of the company upping their pipeline fees. Ain't the law great.

Yeah, this is an unfortunately repetitive thing.

I bet you did not envisage all this "goings on" when you first started this channel Sal, keep up the good work.

Sal your channel is awesome. You have reported far more evidence regarding this accident and what else is going on in the world of shipping than can be found anywhere else. Unless some evidence has been found that points to sabotage by someone or a crew member. I don't see what interest the FBI would have? The three letter agencies are becoming far too intrusive.

Wow, a lot happening! I feel a bit better understanding of the iran issue. I can't believe they have ships and crew there. Awesome we can get better documentation of the Dali. That is scary that the FBI is getting involved too. I wonder why it took so long. Maybe things came out in reports from the manufacturer of illegal modifications or something. It would seem like if they added refrigeration to the main power because it didn't have enough power, and that lead to the full blackout. That is serious stuff.

Dali may need groceries.

interesting times we live in.

Hi Sal, real early this morning yotube autoloaded a Nova video Why Ship Accidents Happen. There is a ship historian on it that really looks like you.😁 It was really good.

The NTSB should get the FBI to back out until the root cause is made public. The NTSB is known for both being slow and also thorough. The problem with the ship is likely a failure to configure parallel generators properly. There may also be a problem with the paralleling design. it is not a simple subject. It will take the NTSB time to unravel it all.

I hope those crew members involved in the FBI investigation get good legal representation at no cost to themselves. I also hope that the NTSB does not apportion blame for the accident on anyone. My understanding is that they work similarly to the MAIB in the UK and report only on the circumstances and causes along with making recommendations to prevent this from happening again. After the 1987 Herald Of Free Enterprise disaster in the English Channel, the UK government brought in some knee-jerk legislation that made the ship's captain responsible for defects in the design and construction of their vessels. These laws were, sensibly, later repealed. I hope the USA does not have any similarly ridiculous laws. My main concern, however, is for the officers and crew on board who must be going through a very difficult time and who could be prevented from going home for a considerable length of time.

I am surprised the price of oil did not peek at $100 today... in fact, it went down! Wonder what the price of insurance doing today and also in the next few weeks to months?

Regarding the FBI, is failing to keep accurate logs a federal offence? I'm thinking logging that maintenance was done, when it actually was not performed. Or not recording faults/failures and just resetting the problem equipment.

That’s one of the slowest “fast”-roping of all time I’ve ever seen

Did they ever test the fuel on board, and not just the fuel delivered?

Hey Sal, you can reach out to Tony with La Lido Loca who is on a cruise ship just got done with Aruba and Curacao, he was scheduled to go to Baltimore, but he got news that the termination of the cruise will now be in Norfolk, VA. I don't think much cruising is regularly done out of Norfolk, Va, but I don't know much, follow much with cruising out of Norfolk. I often cruise out of Tampa. Some repositioners will call at Baltimore, but I guess things will be diverted for awhile.

That’s interesting @7:23 that the cargo shares in the cost of the ship’s salvage. I’m not a mariner but that’s definitely interesting. So, whoever owns the individual containers bill of lading or manifest type thing will chip in to pay ?

Vessel diverted means highjacked by a state.
