I watched the two new Videos uploaded by Mike Hall, was quite suprised how many MSC Ships were involved in Disasters. i know its a big company but seems accident prone. ?

Mostly Greek owned and managed and operated by MSC.

MSC (or Mafia Shipping Corporation, as it is more commonly known) started of with old second hand tonnage (2/3rd generation container ships) and rapidly grew into perhaps the largest container ship outfit in the world, all the time using second hand tonnage. Over the last decade the ships that they manage have been new buildsorders placed by speculative ship owners .
They do seem to feature quite a lot (or their ex. ships do) in casualty figures but maybe that is due to the size of the company.
An interesting fact, MSC ships with a girls name are owned, with a countries named are chartered in.
