According to section 255 of the Merchant Shipping Act 1995, the definition of wreck includes “jetsam, flotsam, lagan and derelict found in or on the shores of the sea or any tidal water”.
Derelict describes property, whether vessel or cargo, which has been abandoned and deserted at sea by those who were in charge of it without any hope of recovering it.
The charge against Danny Tommo mentioned damage to a SHIP; and since the RIB had been abandoned, it becomes a Derelict Wreck.
The Defence have a week to study this aspect of Marine Law.
Still too early to do the final posting, also the vault is a bit empty just now … now I could run a film … too long, or a Templar … or these two episodes to see what you think. We’ve had the second already I think.
There’s just something about those early TV 26 min programs … a lot of fun do you think?
