United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

September 13, 1976.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

David Danielson (argued), of Lane, Powell, Moss & Miller, Seattle, Wash., Ronald J. Bland (argued), of Levinson, Friedman, Vhugen & Duggan, Seattle, Wash., for plaintiffs-appellants.

H. L. George Knowles (argued), of Howard, LeGros, Buchanan & Paul, Seattle, Wash., for defendant-appellee.

Before MOORE, and DUNIWAY, Circuit Judges, and TAYLOR, District Judge.

MOORE, Circuit Judge:

This appeal is one of the last of a vanishing breed — a "warranty of seaworthiness" suit by employees of an independent repairer contractor against a shipowner to recover damages for injuries sustained on board the shipowner's barge. The three employees, Allen D. Uglem,1 Robert E. Olsen, and Stanley A. Olsen, worked for Todd Shipyards Corp. ("Todd" or "contractor"), an independent ship repairer.
