Comments and Observations: | Govt. of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (19 2013) It is reported from the vessel owners that they are in a so serious financial difficulty that they seem to unable to take any step for the improvement of the situation. Considering the current situation, the auction sale seems to be the only efficient way for the crew to recover their dues.
