US Coast Guard’s Marine Board of Investigation (MBI) into the loss of the Titan submersible concluded today with testimony from two Coast Guard search-and-recovery personnel.

The Coast Guard was nevertheless able to mobilize flights over the Titanic area, with some aircraft deploying sonar buoys, which detected knocking noises underwater.

The Coast Guard’s MBI will now start preparing its final report.

The report could include a definitive cause of the fatal accident, referrals for criminal investigations, and recommendations for future policy and regulations.

Neither the manufacturers of the hull nor the engineering director at the time of its construction were called to testify.

OceanGate is facing a $50 million lawsuit from the estate of one of its passengers.
