Coast Guard warns on unsafe foreign ships in Caribbean cruises
Washington reports the Coast Guard will tighten scrutiny of foreign flag vessels carrying passengers from Florida for Caribbean cruises after the Yarmouth Castle disaster. Old ships like the Yarmouth, Viking Princess, Bahama Star, and Adriadne are flagged as high risk due to aging hulls and inflammable interiors, though some American ships also carry dangerous materials. International conventions vary by signatory status, with U.S. standards stricter and enforcement limited on non signatory flags.
