Most tort lawsuits that are initiated never go to court. The parties'

Or are you claiming there will be no civil lawsuits between the tanker
and the sailboat owners?


If this happened in the US I would bet on there being a law suit but
this was UK. Loser pays cuts down of that silliness.
Who would be suing? The tanker company suing for a new paint job?

I don't know. I haven't been following the case or the discussion here.
Once it gets down to he said/she said, and the right-wingers here (not
you) start crapping on the discussion, I skip most of the posts in the
thread.
