plans. The ship had left the dry dock on Monday and shifted around to
James Watt Dock where we were afloat to continue the last of the
maintenance work.
In the forward part of the vessel there is a large void space under
the car deck, some of the metal work had been painted and needed
inspection. On entering the space the Chief Officer noticed quite a
lot of water at the bottom and traced this back to a little crack in
the hull up on the starboard side. The Lloyds surveyor had a look and
as a result we are back in the dry dock having repairs. This was a
photo I took last night as they worked away through the night.
The repairs should be finished by tomorrow (Thursday) morning and then
we aim to depart at 14:00 for sea trials.
