Who do you think is at fault for the sinking? Owner, captain or the tow company?
@joshlindemeier2434 Рік тому
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 🤦♂️
@jerrycallender9927 Рік тому

@SuperChuckRaney 16 днів тому
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.

@williamlorenzmedia9026 Рік тому
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...

I worked for a tow/salvage company once. 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.
@vladabos Місяць тому

@larrymiller7365 Рік тому
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.

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.

The hawaii gov incompetents and the tow company. there was no reason for this boat to be removed without floating it first, whe they did what they did they did far more harm to the reef than the boat did when it grounded there. what is even worse is that the entire boat and everything with it is now sitting offshore. good job hawaii gov incompetents.

@zanedzikonski4234 9 місяців тому
It seems like for over a half a million to recover they could have inspected the the boat for leaks before removing from the reef. A temporary patch or an active pump to pump out water may have been adequate to get it where it was going. I understand it would have still likely been a total loss but it may have still held some salvage value in parts and wouldent be at the bottom of the ocean right now

@@ntal5859 Scuba divers used compressed air, not oxygen, in tanks that are specifically designed to be operated in any position. 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. The welder was "At Work" and therefore subject to OSHA rules and regulations.

@AdamsOlympia 10 днів тому
A Chinook has a rated lift capacity of 25 tons but they've lifted up to 50 before. This yacht weighs around 75 .. Seems like it would have been better for a boat salvage team to strip it of everything non-essential (motors, furniture, etc) getting the weight down to bare minimum and then attempted to lift it out by Heli. It probably didn't get holes in the hull until it was dragged across the rocks. So another option: the tug could have started tugging once the heli had some load taken off the hull. Even if it couldn't lift it all the way out. That might've saved a LOT of money and kept the yacht seaworthy. It still would have cost over 100k to pay for Chinook time, but better than losing 1.5 million (well, 700k after repairs)

@oceanjockey100 Рік тому
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'..

I think the salvage teams thought process was that they can pull the boat quick enough it will keep it up out of the water. This works well until you go to stop. Also it requires a boat that’s actually fast to pull it. They should have had pumps on standby, a few pumps would of made a huge difference even with gaping holes in the bottom of the hull. Overall they did a terrible job, bet the state won’t be calling them back.
