Carnival files suit against Alabama ship repair firm

Thursday, June 20th, 2013 Liability Litigation Marine Property

Cruise giant Carnival is suing the Alabama shipyard that took in the Carnival Triumph earlier this year after it lost power at sea, Mobile’s Press-Register reports. The Press-Register says Carnival is blaming Mobile’s BAE Systems shipyard and several related entities for what it says is more than $12 million worth of damage that occurred to the vessel during a storm that swept across the facility. The Carnival Triumph broke free from its moorings at the shipyard during the April 3 storm, which was accompanied by wind gusts approaching 70 miles per hour.
