(2) other factors a prudent business person would consider in entering into a transaction involving a large capital investment.
(b) Disqualifications.— The Secretary may not charter a vessel to a person appearing to lack sufficient capital, credit, and experience to operate the vessel successfully over the period covered by the charter.
