On Monday 30th November I blogged that the black-out on Saturday 28th had been successful - it took a team of Engineers all day to rod-out the thousands of little tubes that make up the main coolers - click here to see the blog entry and photo. But engine tests on Thursday revealed that one of the the coolers was clogged again - and this is what it looked like when it was opened again on Friday afternoon (see photos above) - full of barnacles, bits of plastic and even a crab. Had someone not replaced the sea strainer properly? We'll never know. The cooler was cleaned again in record breaking time whilst the ship once again lay dark & silent. All OK now though, and ready to sail! Olly
