After discharge of any refrigerated cargo a thorough inspection of the vessel should be carried out before presenting the vessel for loading the next cargo. Amongst the reasons for this is to ensure that any traces of or residues from the previous cargo are removed. This is particularly so if a fruit or meat cargo is to be loaded after a fish cargo has been carried. Select, from the options given, the main reason for this requirement.
Fish is usually carried frozen and there may be some damage to the insulation.
Fish can be oily and may leave an oily residue in the cargo space.
Fish is strong smelling and the odour may contaminate the next cargo.
Ventilating with fresh air may only remove the odour temporarily and it will build up again if residues are present.
