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?


Ah good... you've gone back to hiding. Let me know when you want to
have a civil discussion.
