Appreciate you sharing this level of detail with us. It is very helpful as we consider yacht transport companies. You mention that you've discovered that this problem (angle grinding leading to rust damage) is not unusual. I'd be interested in knowing whether the other "victims" of it had the same kind of supportive financial response from the shipping company? Of concern to us is whether Seven Star, or any other shipping company, would be as responsive if you did not have a Youtube channel. Thanks again.
David, this is definitely something I'm also wondering. We've been contacted by several boats who were on the sv Maria who has similar rust damage. It's hard to get an accurate picture because for one boat, they haven't lodged a claim yet (although I've asked them to do so, and to keep me posted), and for another boat, the rust has returned and they are in need of respraying the gelcoat. I don't know what the outcome with SS is on that particular boat. I know other boats on other ships (I can't say what/which) have had damage and it's been resolved fully by SS. Hope that helps- T
