Vin_sun, they have the right to issue restricted licences though- for example a ship lost one of its 2 props yet was allowed to operate- but only on a restricted licence of X tonnes cargo.

The same applies to ships going for breaking, does it not? The licence might restrict the number of crew onboard to just min bridge and engineering for example.

You're right Stu. Class will do the needful in such cases but will issue it for a specified time.

[Stuart2007]

Me right??? Don't sound too surprised

Is now the wrong time for helen deeble, ceo of pee and ohno ferries to go along and tell them they got the wrong ship?

[The Ferry Man]

She is also now the "president of the UK Chamber of Shipping"...

And I think it may be a bit late now...

That's like making captain costa schinetto the president of the Italian chamber of shipping.

A more unsuitable person you can not find. She has presided over decline after decline of the once mighty P&O.

PS I'm sure that idiot jim on your other forum will probably have it that the Norcape is taking over on a new run to Bilbao... But shhhh don't tell anyone.

Schettino, not Schinetto...

I think he may have corrected your spelling of the Captains name...

No, Captain schettino is a real person and until his trial he remains innocent in law and thus for me to defame him by suggesting he would not be a good President of the Italian Chamber of Shipping would be incorrect.

Captain schinetto on the other hand is a generic name of a fictitious Captain; if anyone (Mr falco, for example) should infer that they are one and the same then that is his own opinion, not mine....
