What is also obvious from these Court transcripts is that he knew what was going on and was happy to assist the senior Council in delivering the desired result. <br />Of course, he has to give a ruling based on the evidence he sees, but how much evidence he sees is also up to him. <br />Don't forget that he has the power to ask for additional witnesses or evidence to be presented to him; within reason, he can do more or less what he likes.<br />We believe that he has an overriding responsibility to search out the truth and deliver justice.<br />In the Derbyshire inquiry, justice Coleman decided to sit without assessors and dismissed the report that had been prepared by initial assessors and, basically, went his own way.<br /><br />Best regardsgadflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12852087594641044352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33647447.post-73888078830026347872011-02-27T23:20:05.341+00:002011-02-27T23:20:05.341+00:00Gadfly,

I had high hopes with this man as he has no doubt had tough decisions to be make in the past I am really surprised he has in effect kowtowed to the whims of the senior council present, I realize he can only make judgement on the evidence presented but he must have had an inkling surely. It would seem totally beyond belief that the Councils and governmental bodies would have thought for one moment that IMCO compliances would not have been the main sources of contention and as such I would have thought testing of the same protocol that the NMI undertook ( in secret or results anyway) would have been order of the day.<br />The burning question of should the vessel have been compliant now seems obvious , well to me anyway.<br /><br />Best Regards RajRajnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33647447.post-24747551326352110932011-02-27T21:39:13.626+00:002011-02-27T21:39:13.626+00:00We think that the tests that were proposed (includ...We think that the tests that were proposed (including another hull) were for mathematical models of the ships hulls where they would undergo various computer simulations. We don't know whether there were any plans to carry out tests on physical models in a tank.<br /><br />Limiting KG curves are just another way of looking at IMCO compliance. The curves are a linear representation of what the maximum KG(VCG) of the ship may be before any one of the 6 IMCO criteria are breached in differing sailing and loading conditions. The curves are often used by ships officers on merchant ships as it gives a quick means of checking whether their stability is OK in any sailing/loading condition. The fact that Trident exceeded the limiting KG curves is to be expected as it didn't meet all of the IMCO criteria.<br /><br />Best regardsgadflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12852087594641044352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33647447.post-70554046092812696192011-02-27T21:38:10.934+00:002011-02-27T21:38:10.934+00:00Gadfly,

I will have to delve a little deeper as I am sure I recently came across proposed tests which were similar but may be mistaken.<br /><br />Best Regards <br />RajRajnoreply@blogger.com
