ok,,did not see them, for sure a consideration worth that container weights were wrong. One of the worst things which can happen when a vessel has trim tanks for listing and the vavles malfuntioning. Also what can happen , special on container ships which are not too good maintained that ballast pipes, which of course also are affected by stresses during loading and discharging, break and leak and suddenly 3-4 tanks become one. That on one side, and a bad stability scenario, a ship might very well capsize. A lot of possebilities.
I stopped one time loading container on deck because the rolling period was totally out of sync what should be, afterwards it was found that container declared as 12 to were in reality 22 ton,,, that in the 2nd tier has a tremendous impact on lossing rapidly stability, until as we can see, could go wrong, if that is the case.

saw a picture of this ship(already capzised)mid June with a full load of container on deck,bridge wing resting on the quay site.

Totally agree! I used to make loadfiles so I know exactly what can go wrong in that process. I'm surprised an accident like this did not happen earlier.
By the way, on earlier pictures of the accident, some boxes were still stacked on deck. I think they were recovered and put ashore during the salvage process.
Captain Ted on Jul 05, 2011 13:34 (1 year ago)
no container on deck, pontoons of the hatch covers are partial ashore, which means they worked in the hatches. Hard to loose then all stability through that only. However, faulty load files,,that,s from my experience on container ships not possibly but the standard. My worst case was out of 800 TEU 122 TEU,s contrary placed to stress limits, stacking weights exceeded or IMO cargoes not proper stored or in the wrong designated places

Maybe someone sent an incorrect load file?
