(ECM) Computerized Findings along with visual inspection:

FUEL FILTRATION SYSTEM: Racor Twin Turbine Series Fuel Filter/Water Seperator 10 Micron Port & Starboard side filter assembly: Appeared serviceable, No water present.

THROTTLE & SHIFTER CONTROLS: Avetics Marex ECS hydraulic shifters worked properly at flybridge and Main cabin locations

ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLED SUPERCHAGER: fully spooled 0.5 seconds giving virtually instant maximum boost. unlike the Turbo that kicks in around a 1000rpm the SUPERCHARGER works at 600rpm making the idle while putting around extremely smooth

SERIES TURBOCHARGERS WITH HEAT SHIELD: Turbo boost pressure maxed out at 55psi while performing (WOT) wide open throttle test at 2270 RPM a little bit under the max rpm of 2300 it could be adjusted with the diagnostic hook-up but i didn’t change it and everything runs smooth 

GEAR-DRIVEN SEAWATER PUMP WITH BRONZE IMPELLER: Seals not leaking/no water present

PLATE-TYPE HEAT EXCHANGER: checked inlet and outlet flow temperature, within parameters

ENGINE OIL COOLER: checked inlet and outlet temperatures, all within parameters

ENGINE MOUNTED FUEL COOLER: checked inlet and outlet temperatures, all within parameters

SEAWATER PUMP OUTLET PRESSURE: sensor working properly, max …560 L/min @ 3.4 m H2O
min…411 L/min @ 23.4 m H2O 

WATER-IN-FUEL DETECTION SWITCH: sensor working properly

EXHAUST TEMPATURE SENSOR: working properly, Exhaust gas flow (total)… 3,903.4 kg/hr (8,605.4 lb/hr)

COOLANT LEVEL SENSOR: working properly

DUAL AFTERCOOLERS: density of air entering engines compression chambers meets parameters

ENGINE MOUNTS AND BED:  Main engine beds are heavy longitudinal stringers inboard and outboard. Engine Mounts Appeared clean & rust free like new condition

LUBRICATION: Oil Level indication is normal both port and starboard.

LUBE OIL PRESSURE: (WOT) engine 100% load 67psi

VENTILATION: Gianneschi MP/1909712 controlled supply and discharge fans. Operated satisfactory.

COOLING SYSTEM TYPE: Freshwater reservoir type cooling with Seawater cooled wet exhaust, Operated satisfactory.

SEAWATER STRAINERS: 2 2.5inch Groco bronze alloy with sight glass. Appeared serviceable. well maintained

COOLANT LEVEL: Normal levels observed. Pressurized expansion tanks on both engines to 25psi no noticeable drop in pressure. used heat sensing gun on all cooling system surfaces. operated normal.

HOSES AND CLAMPS: Double clamped where sighted. All quality 304 SS Compression style hose clamps & top-quality high temp silicon hoses. all in good condition

BELTS AND PULLEYS: Belts & Pulleys condition appeared serviceable with very minimal wear.

SEACOCKS AND STRAINERS: Seawater seacocks were ball valve type. Operated smooth & satisfactory. well, maintained

EXHAUST SYSTEM: Seawater cooled with risers and flexible coupling sections double clamped where sighted. all high-quality silicon exhaust hose, Operated satisfactory.

ENGINE ALARMS: Test of port and starboard low oil pressure alarm, water in fuel alarm and coolant overheat warning audible at helm station. Operated satisfactory.

ENGINE SHUT DOWN: Port and starboard shut down push buttons at helm station & main cabin clearly marked. Operated satisfactory.

STUFFING BOXES: Dripless Shaft Seals, Clean, greased, & no visible leaks

          EMERGENCY SHUT-DOWNS. Port & Starboard Engine equipped appeared to work properly

——————————————————————————————-

SEATRIAL REPORT:

1. The engines started without excessive cranking.

2. The engine exhaust appeared normal.

3. The cooling water exhaust appeared adequate and normal.

4. The engine instruments operate within normal operating limits at idle, cruising speed and at wide open throttle.

5. The steering system operated normally. very responsive.

6. The throttles operated normally.

7. The transmissions both went in & out of gear smooth with no excessive noise, no leaks detected from any of the seals on both

8. The backdown test was satisfactory.

9. both rudder linkage operated smooth while underway, no leaks detected

10. There were no oil or coolant leaks observed. (On main engines or in exhaust water)

11. both bow & stern thrusters operated smooth, very responsive

WOT TEST: (wide open throttle) sea trial test for 3 minutes, smooth clean power, with no smoke from either engine while throttling up, extremely clean at (WOT) 2270 RPM a little under the 2300 Max RPM but nothing to be concerned about.

   
OIL ANALYSIS: Performed sample on both Caterpillar marine engines C12.9 & Both Cummins/Onan Generators.

FINDINGS:

Caterpillar C12.9 marine engines, port & starboard. ran very smooth & sounded strong, low hours, did not observe any black smoke or smoke of any kind that would lead me to believe that they had much wear. Port Generator Onan 21.5…. TRACE LEVELS OF WATER DETECTED (0.1%) MAY BE CONDENSATION. ALL OTHER ANALYSIS READINGS APPEAR NORMAL. I SUGGEST CHANGING THE OIL & FILTER. RUN IT FOR 10 HOURS AND THEN RESAMPLE THE OIL.

 

MARINE ENGINE SURVEY SUMMARY:

As a result of my investigation, MARINE ENGINE SURVEY, and by virtue of my experience, my opinion is OVERALL ENGINE RATING:  VERY GOOD: the engine room and engines appear to be extremely well maintained. the entire space was free of oil and grease & spotless, 

marine engine survey rating
