NEW COAST GUARD SHIPS HAVE MAJOR PARTS FAILURES

The Canadian Coast Guard says it is closely monitoring problems affecting components on all three of its new offshore fisheries science vessels.

Two different components — a propulsion shaft tube and valves controlling seawater intake — have needed repair or replacement on coast guard ships John Franklin, Jacques Cartier and John Cabot.

The "class-wide" problems included corrosion, premature wear or mislabelling.

 The ships have a one-year warranty after delivery.
