It won’t have been under British maritime law as wasn’t the Bayesian registered elsewhere?The passengers might have been drinking but the crew shouldn't have been. It would have been in breach of the international convention which sets the rules for seafarers. Bayesian was a British flagged boat, so the British version of the rules is here. The level of alcohol in the breath is actually 10 microgrammes less than the UK drink drive limit. Basically, one drink will put you over.
ETA: just looked as I couldn’t remember it was indeed registered in the UK, so under British maritime law.
