Mr. Speaker, on 14 May 2021, I informed this Honourable House that the propellers and rudder of the pilot boat St. David was damaged during a training exercise on 6 May 2021 and that the St. David was sent to the Gladding & Hearn shipyard in Boston for repairs.
Mr. Speaker, once the shipyard and Lloyds Classification thoroughly inspected the damage, it was determined that there was also damage to the hull and engine propulsion.
