The Gozo Channel Company said this afternoon, that it will be carrying out an internal inquiry to assertain what happened yesterday evening when two cars were damaged after the front of the ramp on the ferry MV Malita started to rise while cars were still being driven off.
The company said that a mooring line was damaged after the ferry had berthed and as cars were disembarking. The crew had taken immediate action to ensure passengers’ safety, however two cars were damaged in the incident.
Gozo Channel apologised in its statement for the incident and the inconvenience it caused.
Why is it that when cars are being loaded, the master is mostly always there to control things?
But not so when unloading the ferry. where it is usually a free for all and like an F1 race track.
