Court affirmed liability: operator should have secured the sampan to the yacht before permitting a vulnerable passenger to board and failure to do so was negligent; employer vicariously liable for that negligence; second and third falls were causally attributable to the original injury but the fourth fall was not caused by claimant's fault and therefore not her responsibility; contributory negligence apportionments adjusted and damages recalculated (PSLA increased, loss of earning capacity award set aside), yielding final damages HKD 175123.45.
