There was an incident in 1993 when a brand-new InCat vessel ran aground while InCat's owner and his friends took it for a late-night shake down cruise. The vessel was hung up on rocks, completely out of the water (even at high tide) for several weeks while the hull was patched up, a slip was built under it, and enough tugboats were found to move it. I believe there was widespread rumours that the grounding was the result of a "celebration" on board, and the owner losts his mariner's license as a result. Although I remember seeing the vessel aground while in Tasmania, I don't remember any more details like the date, name of the vessel, or the owner's name (Bob Clifford? Something like that?). As I am sure this incident contributed greatly to the company's financial difficulties in the 1990s, someone with detailed knowledge and references to what happened may want to add this to the company's history.

I remember that! It was grounded on "Blackjack Rock" (or something close to that). We drove down from Launceston to see it, I'll have to dig up my old photos next time I go home - I've got a picture of the entire catamaran teetering just above the water. shiyoushi (talk) 07:12, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
