New liability limits for smaller ships
Raising liability limits for small ships makes sense. But not when it comes to wrecks It makes sense that smaller ships can get away with cheaper insurance because the risk of extensive damage is lower than for large ships. But even small ships can cause damage. Therefore, it is necessary and sensible that the Danish Maritime Authority will raise the liability limits to keep up with the general price development. However, Danish Ports asks that the same limits are not applied to wrecks. See Danish Ports' consultation response here.
