It doesn't have to be one or the other. They can both be guilty in this.

The crew was rescued by the cargo m/v "Hyundai Dubai" (IMO: 9469900) which was enroute from Port Klang to Abu Dhabi. The US Navy assisted the two oil tankers after the attack and deployed the destroyer USS "Bainbridge". 44 crew members of the ships were evacuated after the US Fifth Navy in Bahrain received emergency signals from the ships. The 'Kokuka Courageous' of the Bernhard Schulte GmbH & Co., being loaded with a cargo of methanol and sailing from Saudi Arabia to Singapore, suffered damage to its starboard side. The hull was breached above the waterline. The 21 crew members were rescued by a lifeboat of the tug "Coastal Ace" (IMO: 9645554) which was nearby

Iran was also the first to report the attack so there is that as well.

It was closer to them than any other country.

I have seen a few, USCG now accepts all 12 major Classes for US flagged ships, the ones I have seen are DNV for the most part.

If you get bored google USCG ACP program and be prepared for the usual boring arse FedGov document.

I, personally, think it's bad fcking arse that we have destroyers around the globe that can show up in a matter of hours to an "SOS" signal.

Disclaimers:
-I'm sure other countries don't feel this same sentiment
-I'm not sure that we can do this globally and perhaps the destroyer was near by because of the particular area of concern

Nonetheless....It's cool as shite.

That registering a ship to the Marshall islands is dumb and we shouldnt be the worlds Navy. Let the Marshall islands navy handle their issues.

Just level a couple of their refineries and con them into hiring CB&I for the rebuild. That would incapacitate them in the meantime and bankrupt them in the long run
