Of course, this is only true if the other oppinions are based on
points (can't find the English word for "gefundeerd"... founded?)

clothing, oil and dates, and other things of the kind needed for fitting
it: if the sailor is careless, the boat is wrecked, and its contents
ruined, then the sailor shall compensate for the boat which was wrecked
and all in it that he ruined.
