We don’t know this for sure. Attorneys for the plaintiffs will be burdened with proving negligence on the part of the defendants in any lawsuit in connection with this unfortunate incident. Something as simple as an overlooked periodic inspection of a critical piece of hardware can result in a multi-million dollar settlement.

And from the numerous news reports of life aboard the Triumph while it drifted aimlessly in the Gulf without power or sanitary facilities for days, it was far more serious than the simple inconvenience of skipping a scheduled port of call.
