Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.
Where there was some evidence that appellant was the owner of the vessel which, due to its negligent operation, caused appel-lee’s injuries, and appellant, defending on the grounds that it was only an agent for the principal, willfully refused to comply with the court’s order to produce documents disclosing the identity of the owner, it was proper to strike the defense and enter judgment for appellee. See Watson v. Peskoe, 407 So. 2d 954 (Fla. 3d DCA 1981).
