This is all insured and reinsured from many different angles and it will be a pooled loss.

There will be a decade of litigation across multiple continents. By the time anybody is held liable, US taxpayers will have paid for the new bridge and hyperinflation will have eclipsed the value of the payout.

at this point I'm not even seeing where you'd get liability for the ship owners, a total power failure isn't negligent, I'm not aware that this would fall under some sort of strict liability, although maritime law is weird af

The shipowners' interests will file for limitation of liability under the Shipowners Limitation of Liability Act of 1851. If owners' are able to limit, their liability would be limited to the value of the DALI post-casualty (which is a lot less now because she is quite damaged) plus pending freight.

This assumes limitation is available, the lawyers will fight over that.

Container ship like that minus repairs will be worth something probably. $10m maybe. Pending freight, $3-4m maybe. But yeah, that’s the law.

It’s a pooled claim, and yes, there is theoretically coverage for very high amounts like that.

But you’re jumping the gun on many issues. Limitation for one. Fault of the bridge for two. Etc. i
