1Per curiam
P.G. Charter Boats, Inc., as owner of the vessel in issue, appeals the district court’s order dismissing as untimely its limitation of liability action filed pursuant to the Limitation of Liability Act, 46 App. U.S.C. §§ 181-196. Under this Act, a vessel owner has six months to file an action to limit damages in a liability claim to the value of the vessel and its freight. After review, we conclude that the district court did not err in its determination that P.G.’s limitation of liability action was not timely filed within the requisite six-month period. 1
