Every day good day ,hundreds of thousands of coast residents put their lives at lives at risk as ferries they use to cross at Likoni and Mtongwe are death traps that could cause a tragedy anytime.
The vessels plying the channels are unfit for use,having passed their service time by thousands of hours .One of the vessels was found to be operating on a 25-years old steering system that was not compatible with it's new engine. It had run for 16,000 hours - nearly double the recommended 8,500 hours - badly needed overhaul.
