Abstract

The author disputes J Donaldson's inference that the crew of torpedo boat No. 47 were inexperienced naval reservists with only a fortnights training, and raises the question as to whether the feed pumps and injectors in torpedo boats No. 47 and 57 were operating at the time of the accident.
