A damning report into the grounding of MSC Napoli last year warns that other container ships have similar problems.
More British ships could suffer the same fate as the MSC Napoli, which had to be grounded off the Devon coast last year amid fears that it would break up in the sea.
An official report into the disaster has found the vessel's hull design was to blame. 12 others now have similar problems and need work to make them safe.
