miami j, I genuinely feel sorry for the investors and the company because of this latest reversal of fortune. ie... the leak in the main fuel tank.

If the company would have adhered the the principle of the 6 P's.
( Prior Planning Prevents P*ss Poor Performance.) This might have been avoided. I sincerely hope that the company hired a Marine Surveyor to survey the new boat before they bought it. If they did and he did not do a competent job, then maybe they have recourse to go after the company that did the survey. That way the investors won't get stuck with a huge bill for the transfer of fuel, storage of the fuel and repair or replacement of the fuel tank.

When they said they were going to rename her I was going to point out it is considered bad luck to do that but didn't want to jinx anyone. Anyway lucky for them this was discovered before they were half-way across to the DR.
