Propulsion machinery must be suitable in type and design for propulsion requirements of the hull in which it is installed and capable of operating at constant marine load under such requirements without exceeding its designed limitations. Received report that vessel received a low oil pressure alarm and the port engine shut itself down. Repairs prior to passengers. 46 CFR 119.200(a)

Vessel experienced a loss of propulsion on Starboard engine, reducing the maneuverability of the vessel. CG-835V to be cleared upon submission of causal analysis and tech report and satisfactory completion of an underway sea trial.

Whenever damage or deterioration to hull plating or structural members that may affect the seaworthiness of a vessel is discovered or suspected, the cognizant OCMI may conduct an internal structural examination in any affected space and may require the vessel to be drydocked or taken out of service to assess the extent of the damage, and to effect permanent repairs.

Each vessel must be provided with a visual and audible alarm at the operating station to indicate a high water level in each of the following normally unmanned spaces: (1) A space with a through-hull fitting below the deepest load waterline, such as a lazarette; (2) A machinery space bilge, bilge well, shaft alley bilge, or other spaces subject to flooding from sea water piping within the space; and (3) A space with a non-watertight closure , such as a space with a non-watertight hatch on the main deck. Vessels port vild bilge high level alarm was incorrectly labeled and did not correctly indicate which space was alarming. Rectify deficiency within 7 days. 46 CFR 119.530

Make repairs to intrusion and crack welds in #2 void stabard side frame 19 at 1st logitudenal frame from top.

Propulsion machinery must be suitable in type and design for propulsion requirements of the hull in which it is installed. Repair port side propulsion (suspected flex coupling between the MDE and R/G). 46CFR119.200(a)

The sea painter on two of the IBAs onboard the vessel were improperly attached. Sea painters not secured to the hydro static release. Properly attach sea painters to hydro static release.
