KALODNER, Circuit Judge.
Cross-appeals were filed from an Interlocutory Decree of the District Court ordering the United States to pay to The P. Dougherty Company one-half of the *628damages suffered by its barge, Harford, while in tow of the Coast Guard cutter Mohawk, in the course of a rescue operation at sea. The District Court’s Decree was based on its determination that both the Harford and the Mohawk were negligent.
Dougherty’s appeal is premised on its contention that the Harford was free of negligence and that the Mohawk’s negligence was the sole cause of her damage.
