Re: Broken bulkheads
I believe Lagoon is trying this route now. It takes quite a bit for a company this size to (sorry for the phrase) turn the ship. I do not know about proactive responses as of now. We are trying to... |

Re: Broken bulkheads
I don't think we get to decide if the issue was with the design or the implementation of the bulkhead (VLVP designed, Lagoon implemented). What we also don't get to decide is on a certified fix... |
