Jet Ski overheating problem
It is quite possible for there to be a collision with neither vessel
at fault. A small number of cases (under 5%) are resolved this way. Mechanical failure is a primary cause, but as equipment becomes more reliable, this is accepted less as an excuse. A failure that could have been detected, or avoided with proper maintenance does not qualify. Dr. Dr. Smithers wrote: Yes I have and there are collisions between ships on the St. Lawrence Seaway due to mechanical or human error. When this happens it is not necessary for both ships to be at fault. One ship can assume 100% of the responsibility even though the other ship was not avoid the collision.

Take a look at the majority of the St. Law. Seaway. Dr. Smithers, have you ever boated on the St. Lawrence Seaway? This Seaway has HUGE wide channels in it. Large Freighter pass one another regularly. I have 1000's of hours boating the Great Lakes System. There are some area's where there are channels so narrow that only one boat is permitted to proceed at one time through them. These are mainly in the 30,000 Island area of Georgian Bay and in some areas of the North Channel of Lake Huron. In these areas the rule of Up Bound and Down Bound are in effect. The speed limit is also in effect. Jim Carter "The Boat" Bayfield |
