In this admiralty case, we are asked to review the district court's1 finding that a barge owner lost profits while repairing several barges damaged in towing accidents. We are also asked to review the district court's award of prejudgment interest on those lost profits. Finding no clear error in the district court's fact finding, and no abuse of discretion in the award of prejudgment interest, we affirm.
