In my opinion they should have just bought the proper boats in the first place as opposed to the galleons passage .. i am patiently waiting to see how the galleons passage will perform because i am almost certain that it wont be up to the standard of the current vessels . The trinidad to tobago route is not a river crossing .. The galleons passage will have to live up to a lot of expectations because our current vessels although unreliable at times due to improper maintenance did do a very good job for the last couple of years and up to now can still complete the Trinidad to Tobago run in record time with maximum load despite taking daily stress tests to and from Tobago ..
The Spirit whilst Incat didn't come from Australia to Trinidad. It was bought used and came from the USA - NAS Jacksonville I believe.

why couldn't they do these modifications by the original ship builder in china ? Soon we may hear Galleon Passage needs to go australia to pick up a Hull ..

Hopefully they dont give us alot of botched work .

Once the PNM involved, this is normal. Drawings and procurement of material? All this was supposed to be done BEFORE the vessel arrived.

This has really become a source of great comic relief.
The level of quiet from those in authority is absolutely deafening.
How one can mess this up is amazing.
The reality is the spirit which is taking all the pressure, would most certainly be pushed to another major breakdown by end July.

Sadly true. JUHN Scarfy was able to bray like a jackarse and call for resignation every Monday morning to roust his half-wit supporters to vote for him and the PNM. Said PNM supporters now crying in private, but amazingly still singing his praises in public :roll:
