Hi Guys
hope you all had a good swing off and would like to wish you all a merry Christmas and a happy new year 🥳
HAVE BEEN ASKED BY MAINTENANCE NOT TO RUN PORT SIDE GENSET AS INJECTOR PROBLEM
All important emails flagged
Section 6 and 12 have been updated in the SMS make sure everyone reads and signs off on them
If Jag can monitor the coolant leak on the port AFT heat exchanger, and let Brodie know if it gets any worse, as there are trying to wait for the manifold and turbo to get here, and do the job all together
Port Genset on startup sometimes runs rough, Brodie was asking if we can Video it and send it to him as every time he comes down to have look at it, runs perfect, when this happens you have to shut Gen down and restart should run good after that!
I have written all the channel degrees on the contact list thats stuck to the wheelhouse bench along with the chart variation, makes it a little bit easier for when you do your compass error checks
all springers when replaced just before I swung on, if I can ask you look on the forward springer at GL3 as with this heavy weather springer has been getting caught between vessel and fender, and starting to flatten rope on the splice, new springer has been made and in the starboard forward void
all vessel checks are up to date and submitted
been having a lot of problems with DataWeb and internet connections try and not lose your ships trip log, as the UTC is about 10 hours behind us, so if you lose it you will have wait until after 10 o’clock in the morning before you will be able get get it back🤬
to get GPS up an running 1st press red button next to white VHF radio turn screens on then double left click mouse on icon in the middle of the screen, will start up then press the navigation icon and your set to go.
on our last weekly checks found that some of the hatches are needing the seal replaced on the hatch, we have ordered some rubber piping and some sika so if you could start with the jet room hatches first would be a great start
Have a good swing John and crew.
