Shortly before noon, on Saturday, May 1, 1999, the amphibious boat tour of Miss Hamilton came majestic lake near Hot Springs, Arkansas, on a regular tour area. On board were 20 passengers and an operator. According to the operator a few minutes after entering the water, the vessel contained in port, and then quickly sank by the stern. The ship sank below the water surface, taking passengers and its operator. The ship sank in 60 feet of water, and 13 of the 20 passengers, including three children, were killed.
According to the testimony of survivors, Miss Majestic had been in the lake, with 5-7 minutes when his back was flooded in a minute later, the ship was sunk with the water coming from the rear, and sank. Miss Majestic sank so quickly that only seven passengers and the driver managed to escape the ship and swim to the surface, where they were rescued by pleasure boats in the region.
Survivors ¢ â, ¬ â "¢ time estimated at 5 to 7 minutes agree with the Safety Board ¢ â, ¬ â "¢ s estimates, which are based on Vessela ¢ â, ¬ â" ¢ s average speed and distance between the ramp and the location of the wreck. DUKW, as the Miss Majestic, the adjustment usually at the back of the water, resulting in a freeboard of only 12.8 inches rear, by number, weight and distribution of passengers.
The Security Council made calculations to simulate Miss Majestic accident, which began in the rear housing of the rear shaft had slipped completely out of the house. A separate boot allows water to enter the hull through the annular space between the drive shaft 3 inches in diameter and 4-7/8-inch-diameter housing.
The Safety Board believes that the minimum water intake is approximately 170 gallons per minute (GPM), which was sufficient to eliminate the Vessela ¢ â, ¬ â "¢ s freeboard at the stern and sink the ship in 7 minutes. To check the accuracy of estimates, the Safety Board contracted with a firm of naval architects known for calculations detailed. The signing ¢ â, ¬ â "¢ s preliminary calculations have confirmed that a boat carrying 20 passengers Majestic Miss sink no flood control in about 6 minutes.
In its original conception, a DUKW is equipped with a drain pump which is driven Chain propeller shaft and powered by DUKW ¢ â, ¬ â "¢ s main engine. The operation of the pump, therefore, depends on the reliable operation Vessela ¢ â, ¬ â "¢ s propulsion system and the reliable operation of the pump." Miss Majesty ¢ â, ¬ â "¢ s pump discharge was considered unworkable, despite reports of witnesses who had worked only two days before. trust an active system as a pump discharge must ensure reliability.
However, even with careful maintenance and testing regular, reliability can never be guaranteed. Any deficiencies in the maintenance, if the result of lack of training or experience, irregular or ineffective procedures, failure to identify a problem, the use of poor technique, or other causes, can cause the active system useless.
