It was a US court that enforced the detainment so neither the PRC nor the owners have much to do with it (. If the crew were at sea they'd be earning a lot more more money for both. Having a crew shut up in a secret location, not running your ships, isn't good business sense. I wonder how the US would have reacted if the master, chief engineer et al aboard the Global Patriot were detained by the Egyptian authorities under the same conditions, pending a court hearing that might not happen for a year or two? What's good for the goose... Since the detainees don’t have US visas it’s unlikely they’ll get anywhere near Disneyland or anywhere else.
