War risk bonus for Boonaroo ruled reasonable
In Sydney a war risk bonus of 100 per cent increase in pay for the crew of the Vietnam bound Boonaroo was deemed reasonable by Mr Justice Gallagher. He noted the dispute between the Seaman's Union and Commonwealth lines had not reached formal closure and that compensation terms remained under review. The ship faced delayed sailing due to manning and insurance issues tied to Vietnam service.
