Eastern City (5)
Engine room under construction. |

The ship is ballasted down by the head so the stern tube is clear of the water. The propellor shaft was only pulled in far enough for the propeller to be removed. | ||
The photo top left shows the purifier module on the quayside ready to be lifted aboard. The photo top right shows the unit being lifted aboard and from this you can see that all the pipework etc is complete so there is the minimum of work to do when it is installed in the engine room. The larger photo shows more detail. The photo on the right shows the module in it's final position in the engine room. |
