Y’all are dense. Would you rather sit around and wait for the investigation to conclude and money to be paid out before working to clear and rebuild the bridge?

Not going to be much money paid out, maritime law limits the liability amount to no more than the value of the ship at fault….. basically the owner of the ship will hand over the deed and move on, US taxpayers on the hook for everything else
