Fighting Fish Charters fully concurs with all aspects of Final Safety Recommendation 034/01.

Unfortunately with the loss of "La Nina", we no longer have a charter vessel to operate. However, please be assured that if we undertake any future commercial maritime operations, that our safe ship management policy manual will contain the appropriate policies and we will implement the guidelines necessary, to address all four safety issues identified in this safety recommendation.

Together with our survey company, we will establish the required policy content and w will ensure implementation of these amended safety policies. We will supply evidence of safe ship management policy manual amendment and policy implementation guidelines, to the Transport Accident Investigation Commission, prior to any future commercial maritime venture commencing.
