Deck Layout

The vessel is equipped with 2 containers on the Starboard for us, a control cabin (as seen detailed below) and a spares container. There is also a container for survey, one for the client and a spares container for the LARS.

When installing the winch the phases light wasn't illuminated, because where is the fun in having all your plugs the same on the vessel.

Cabling to survey is run in the cable tray running overhead between the containers.

The survey and FiGS (inc Reps) containers are on the Port side of the vessel

The LARS has been supplied by Fadfae and comes with two operators (Jude and Kennedy, but of whom are nice). It is not heave compensated, although Bright confirmed it was on the 19th September...this is a recurring theme.

Emergency Recovery Location

On the 8th November, prior to loading the garage for the second time, the vehicle was relocated to the emergency recovery position. The space between mezz deck and the bulwarks is very tight, and even with the shore side crane the lift was sketchy. During a recovery at sea we expect the vehicle to make contact with the some part of the ship. This was the first time the vehicle had been lifted into this location, and seen how very tight things were. The advice from the office is that in the event of an emergency recovery, if the weather conditions aren't flat calm, then we should leave the vehicle attached to the crane in the water.

Control Cabin

The Control Cabin is a 20' foot container that has been split in half (reminiscent of how HAUV1 is setup, with a workshop and office space).

The transformer for the battery charger is located inside the Workshop, left hand side from the picture above. The charger and charge cables are stored in the spares container.
