The ATSB has released its report into an engine room fire on board the Captain Aysuna in Oct 2001 (Marine Report No. 172). No injuries occurred. From the report:- There was a definite and concerted attempt by members of the crew not to cooperate with the investigation. The area affected by the fire was cleaned and painted over in an attempt to hide all evidence of the cause of the fire, and, while the crew almost certainly knew what had caused the fire, they did not divulge this information to the ATSB. It is probable that the fire was caused by spillage of a small amount of fuel from a container left at the forward edge of the boiler flat. The fuel, probably being used as a cleaning medium, could have spilled as a result of movement of the ship in rough seas. It is likely that this fuel was diesel oil. |
