After the captain of the MV Sabanto,Ron Jaworski Eagles Jersey, which ran aground in November, was fired, President of thePresident of AT&GW Godfrey WhyteAmalgamated Transport and General Workers Union (AT&GW), Godfrey Whyte is lambasting the actions taken by the Transport and Harbours Department (T&HD) claiming mismanagement is a serious issue that needs to be addressed.On November 17, last,Derrick Thomas Chiefs Jersey, the ferry was on its usual route from Parika to Supenaam, Essequibo when its captain lost control of the boat,Joe Namath Jets Jersey, causing it to run aground at Wakenaam Island.As such, Whyte said the General Manager of Transport and Harbours Department, Marcelene Merchant, must take full responsibility for the mishaps since it was her choice to appoint an uncertified employee to work as captain on the Sabanto from September 1, 2014.“For the first two months nothing went wrong, so nothing was said. The General Manager has poor management skills; she is unreasonable and uncaring to her crew and passengers on that ship. By putting an officer who is only qualified to pilot a small vessel less than six hundred (600) tons to then pilot the M.V. Sabanto which is over 1,599 tonnes is irresponsible.”Whyte added, “She is recorded on the national television saying the captain lost all sense of direction, so he was dismissed. The General Manager dismissed that officer and took on that responsibility of Marine Superintendent. She is not a certified captain (Master). The Marine Section of the Transport & Harbours Department was managed by a Marine Superintendent who is a certified captainThe MV Sabanto when it was recently docked at the Vieira wharf in Houston,Anthony Munoz Bengals Jersey, East Bank Demerara for repairs.(Master) under the Coasting and Passenger Trade Act.”Further,Troy Polamalu Steelers Jersey, Whyte said that it would have been a real challenge for the captain who was piloting the ferry since the M.V. Sabanto “has no working compass,Kurt Warner Rams Jersey, no working GPS and a malfunctioning radar…“When the ferry grounded it was after midnight and the rain was pouring, the entire place was white with rain and visibility was poor.”To further compound the situation,Mel Blount Steelers Jersey, Whyte said that a compass is an important instrument on a vessel that shows direction, the fact that the M.V. Sabanto has no compass to guide the master of that vessel, is dangerous to everyone on board.“The General Manager is incompetent when it come to the affairs of Transport & Harbours Department and has no sense of direction, for allowing a tug and pontoon mate to master a vessel like the M.V. Sabanto that has over 1599 tonnes with no navigating instruments that determine the position,Herman Edwards Eagles Jersey, course and distance travelled.”Whyte underscored,Wesley Walker Jets Jersey, “The situation can re-occur because the new captain is saddled with the same old problem – no navigating instruments.” This is a contention that Works Minister Robeson Benn rejected.The MV SABANTO and MV KANAWAN are two Chinese-built vessels gifted to the Government of Guyana back in January 2012.
