Foster, J.
(concurring in the result)—While I cannot *706escape the conclusion that the last sentence in the instruction defining “unseaworthiness”:
“ . . . A vessel that is reasonably fit for the voyage or the work for which it is intended is ‘seaworthy’.”
is contrary to McAllister v. Magnolia Petroleum Co., 357 U. S. 221, 2 L. Ed. (2d) 1272, 78 S. Ct. 1201, and was inconsistent with the preceding portion of the instruction, I concur in the result.
April 16, 1960. Petition for rehearing denied.
