Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The FPB 78 GREY WOLF II underwent a comprehensive refit at a United Kingdom facility to meet updated MCA Category 0 coding requirements, which become mandatory in 2027.0:29 Technicians replaced all plastic valves and strainers in the engine room and workspace areas with stainless steel components to comply with new fire-safety regulations.0:36 Because the new stainless steel valves are significantly heavier than the original plastic fittings, the refit team fabricated custom bracketry to support the hardware and prevent strain on the hull spigots.1:11 The project required hauling the vessel to replace underwater through-hull valves, while remaining valves above the waterline were serviced while the boat was afloat.1:25 The upgrade also included installing an electro-valve on the air conditioning raw water intake, allowing for remote shut-off from outside the workspace.4:15 Following the completion of these mechanical updates and the associated manual revisions, the vessel is scheduled to depart for the Channel Islands before spending the summer season in the Mediterranean.6:17
