Propeller shaft seal leak - not unheard of during shakedown/sea trials.

Not that I wouldn’t demand compensation from the company who did the work, just saying it is only getting news because it’s the “latest and greatest” doing it’s first run about.

Let me see ... the world has been building ships with propeller shafts that go thru the hull for roughly 150 years. It would seem to me that such technology should be very mature and not present an issue in this day and time.
