Affirmed on the opinion of Judge Abruzzo in concluding that the damage was caused solely by failure of the bridge tender to give a timely danger signal. The applicable regulations, 33 C.F.R. 203.180(a), (b) and (d)(2)(i), can only be construed as requiring a prompt reply to the signal of an approaching vessel.
