I have chipped, primed, and painted a ship many times because of this. Fortunately it was only around the equipment I "owned" so the space was only about 10x10 ft.
Just curious, in what kind of situation did you "own" (I read the quotes as implying you had responsibility for the upkeep & use of) a small well-defined piece of a larger ship?
In the Navy, while aboard a ship, you generally have spaces that you or your team "own" whether it's the walkways right out side your work space or aloft.

Most people seem to underestimate how corrosive ocean water and spray is to nearly everything.

The amount of rust created is INSANE

Also the number of people steering a cargo ship isn’t that much, i mean it doesn’t take hundreds of people to sail it so how much is actually gained?
