These 2 weeks were realy packed for me,last Wed had to go to pacific tiger, their engine reduction gear box was not working the propeller shaft was was turning slower than the other one so i had worked overtime,it was 7 in the morning the gear box was fixed, the problem was with the gearbox lub oil pressure.then i came back home around 8 in the morning closed my eyes and fell asleep very fast, around 3 another call came to go for inspection onboard MOL Ingenuity at PSA around 7. Went to PSA lost our way 1 hour passed searching for the ship at last we found her,parked our vehicle climbed up the pilot ladder signed our names in the register.this ship is so big that it has a lift inside its about 10 storey's high went top the wheel house to meet chief engineer,we were escorted down to engine by the 2nd engineer, as i entered in i saw this huge engine this was the biggest engine i saw till now Sulzer 9RTA84M,then we went down near the propeller shaft to inspect lub oil cooler opened both the end covers measured the tubes dimensions.then went back talked to chief engineer most probably we have to do the job around 21st.Then i went back home and slept nicely.sat went horizon garden and practised for carols. Today pacific tigers capt calls and says its an emergency,both their generators were seized so i packed all my tools and went westcoast terminal it took me about an hour or so to get there,i reached the ship went to the engine room it was pitch dark couldn't see anything,opened my tool box and removed 2 lamps it wasn't that bright enough but could see something, i opened up the fuel lines pumped a bit fuel,i found ou that there was alot water in the fuel tank,we drained the water completely then tried to start the generator it didn't start,so then we opened the fuel injection pump and bought to our workshop,tomm have to go and fix it back again.
