Bilge: Holding water and fluid in various areas

Comments: The vessel was inspected while hauled and afloat. The hull bottom was visually inspected and randomly sounded. The hull bottom is in satisfactory structural condition. We arrived to the vessel after the bottom was dry, limiting visibility of blisters. There were blisters scattered over most of the hull bottom, the larger ones were more visible aft. The blisters were not counted. There are likely over one hundred blisters over 1.25” in diameter. There are several hundred smaller blisters. We probed several blisters; some originate between the gelcoat and an external fairing / coating. Some originate within the laminate; all the blisters that were probed are “wet”. The anti-fouling paint exhibits satisfactory coverage; the age of the anti-fouling paint is unknown. The vessel exhibits a list to port, per the waterline on the transom. The sacrificial zinc anodes on the transom were replaced while the vessel was hauled. The anodes on the trim tabs are wasted. The hull sides and transom were visually inspected and randomly sounded. The hull sides and transom are in satisfactory structural and cosmetic condition. There is no hull identification number on the transom. There is paint damage along both hull sides just above the waterline, including damage to the boot stripe. The hull sides are oxidized. Most of the metal covers on the port hull side are dented, a painted cover after amidships is blistered. The passerelle is a two piece ladder. The external piece is hinged up and secured with string on the transom. There is no way for the accidental swimmer to re-board. There are cracks visible about the freeing ports. There is rub damage outboard on the starboard forward cap rail, from contact with another vessel recently. There is impact on the starboard hull side above the waterline, 4’ forward of the transom. The bow is banged up from the anchors. We found water dripping out of the starboard forward fair lead and stains down the hull. There is minor damage on the transom edges. Water was dripping from both sides of the swim platform externally, while the vessel was hauled. There are miscellaneous scrapes and scratches on both hull sides and there are a few “patches”. The deck and superstructure were visually inspected and randomly sounded. The deck and superstructure are in satisfactory structural and satisfactory – marginal cosmetic condition. The teak decks are weathered and loose about the aft lazarette hatch. The blue areas on the superstructure have extensive cracks. The white areas just above the blue areas also exhibit extensive cracks. The fairing is failing on the port side of the foredeck near the sun pad. There are similar but smaller cracks to starboard and on the centerline in this area. There is paint failure on the interior of the bulwarks, mostly forward and just below the cap rail. There is a “soft patch” in the flybridge deck. The deck hardware including safety rails, mooring devices and hatches was visually inspected and most hatches and the port lights were opened and closed. Overall the deck hardware is in satisfactory condition. There is corrosion on the aluminum brackets securing the flybridge bench seats. The flybridge venturi windscreen is warped and cracked on the port side. The flybridge sun top has algae and leaked water during the rain. The locker to starboard forward on the aft deck is weathered and has various damage. The aft latch for the starboard forward saloon sliding window is not functional. There is corrosion on and about the wing doors. We could not open the forward port light in the port crew cabin. The spring loaded deck hatch for the crew area is unsafe; there is no positive means to keep the latch open. The gasket is missing from one of the port lights in the V.I.P. (aft) cabin. The gasket is loose in the port light in the starboard crew head and there is water damage in this area. There is a black substance on the port light to port in the master head and the gasket is extruding. The structural reinforcements including the stringers and bulkheads were visually inspected and randomly sounded. The structural reinforcements appear to be in “as-built” condition. The bilge is holding water and oil in various areas; the source of these fluids is beyond the scope of this survey. There is fluid in the lazarette bilge and a water line indicating prior water accumulation. The engine room bilge is oily. There is oil below a manual oil pump to port forward in the engine room. Several of the sole supports are missing throughout the vessel, including in the lazarette and in the cabin spaces. There is water in the master stateroom bilge to port. There is water visible below several of the heads. There are many French placards scattered throughout the vessel, the vessel was previously a French vessel named removed for privacy and the HIN – removed for privacy. The vessel was also previously a British vessel, with official number – Removed for privacy. There are wood blocks used to support the engine room sole, to starboard aft. The interior cabin spaces are neat, clean and orderly. The interior of the vessel is in satisfactory cosmetic condition. The age of the interior is unknown. There is deteriorated plywood below the transformer, to starboard in the lazarette. There are nails in several areas securing headliner panels including in the saloon and pilothouse. There is damage to the face plate for a locker door to port forward in the saloon. There is no formal dining table. There is miscellaneous damage to the sideliner throughout the vessel including color variances, stains and marring. There are stains on the headliner and sideliner in the pilothouse. Various locker and drawer pulls are sticking, damaged or missing. Several of the drawer locker faces in the V.I.P. cabin are loose. In general, the carpet is not tacked down or bound. The carpet is stapled in some areas in the master stateroom (forward). Overhead panels are loose and stained in the port cabin. There is a panel loose in the starboard cabin near the forward port light and there are rust stains in this area. Overhead panels are loose to port forward in the master stateroom. There are rust stains in this area. There is a soft spot on the bulkhead below the weather tight door to the crew area. This survey is not a mould inspection. The condition of the coring, in the stringers, deck, and elsewhere as applicable, is beyond the scope of this inspection.

Summary: Satisfactory

Comments: The engines and transmissions were visually inspected and tested during a sea trial. The client had the engines and transmissions inspected by a mechanic, please refer to the mechanical survey report for greater detail as to the condition of the machine systems. The external surfaces and peripheral components of the engines and transmissions appear satisfactory. The oil in the starboard engine is clean. The port engine room tachometer registered 1200 rpms when the engine was off. The engine control reservoirs were low on pressure and there are no legible labels on the engine or steering control reservoirs. Two hoses connected to the port transmission oil cooler are cracked and weeping. Bonding straps near the propeller shaft seals are no longer in use. We did not operate the engines to wide open throttle, the broker and current owner /reports that the engines were operated to wide open throttle with Brown Engineering aboard the vessel (mechanical surveyors). The flybridge transmission oil pressure gauge was “pegged”. The engine oil pressure was higher to port on the flybridge gauges, 7 versus 9. The transmission oil pressure was higher on the starboard side on the pilothouse gauges, 17 versus 20. The transmission oil temperature gauge for the starboard engine in the engine room is inoperative. The engine coolant was higher to port on the engine room gauges, 79 versus 71. The engine controls functioned normally. The reservoir pressure was pumped up prior to the sea trial. The exhaust system is properly arranged and installed. The exhaust “pressure relief” discharges out of the transom, through what appeared to be integral boxes along both hull sides. The propulsion components including the propellers, propeller shafts, struts and shaft seals were visually inspected. There are “leak stains” from a water hose inboard forward on the port engine. The propellers were percussion tested and spun with a fixed object adjacent to the blades. The propeller shafts were manipulated in the struts and observed while underway. Overall the propulsion components are in satisfactory condition. There was slightly higher than normal vibration. The trim tabs are fixed in position and do not move. There is corrosion on a steering hose fitting to port in the lazarette bilge. There is corrosion on trim tab junction boxes on the transom. The steering system was visually inspected and test operated. The steering system did not function normally. An excessive number of turns are required to turn the rudders. The engine room blowers were energized. The generators were visually inspected, test operated and loaded. The generators functioned normally. The insulation in the port generator’s sound box is failing. There is an active water leak and stains on the port generator’s exhaust mixing elbow and the hose below it. The port generator’s oil was “clean”. The port generator would not start from the engine room controls. There are salt deposits in the starboard generator’s drip pan. The starboard generator runs at 3600 rpms and the port generator runs at 1800 rpms. The through hulls were visually inspected and the valves were manipulated. The through hulls are in satisfactory condition. We could not shut the engines’ or generators’ through hull valves. We did not check or test the bonding system. The seawater systems were visually inspected and most components were tested. Overall, the seawater systems are satisfactory. Please see comments under tanks. A few of the electric bilge pumps were energized however most were not. The passerelle is inoperative, the motor assembly exhibits corrosion and several wires appear to be cut. There is corrosion on the actuator and there are chafe damaged wires at the transom penetration. The davits were energized but only one davit would move at a time. Several plumbing valves on the interior of the transom are seized, stiff or corroded. The two forward engine room bilge pumps discharge through one unsecured hose.

Summary: Satisfactory

TANKAGE

Fuel: One metal tank per side aft in engine room, apparently steel, sight tube on port tank, 2,275 gallon capacity in five tanks *

Fill & vent: Metal pipes, valves and manifold in aft engine room bilge, pumps and manifold to starboard forward in engine room, one fill fitting on each side of superstructure aft of amidships

Feed & return: Metal tubes, flexible hoses, dual Racor filters inboard of engines, valves by the Racors

Water: Manifold to port forward in engine room indicates four tanks with 1200 liters in aft tank, four deck fill fittings per side, metal tank on centerline in aft cabin, tank in port cabin bilge (metal hatch on unknown type of material for tank), tank in forward cabin passageway bilge, 600 gallons in four tanks *

Holding: Metal tank (apparently waste tank) in bilge forward of engine room, plastic tank in starboard bilge aft cabin, metal tank in port bilge aft cabin (gray water – GW), metal tank in port cabin bilge, aluminum tank in starboard cabin bilge, metal gray water (GW) tanks in port and starboard cabin bilge, metal (GW) tank in crew bilge, 100 gallon waste capacity *

Comments: The fuel system including the tanks, fill, vent, feed and return lines was visually inspected as installed. Where visible the fuel system components are in satisfactory condition. The condition and age of the fuel (and water) and the integrity of the tanks (fuel, water, holding) and hoses is beyond the scope of this survey. We did not inspect a tank diagram or trace and inspect all tankage and plumbing. A sender has apparently been removed from the tank in the bilge forward of the engine room. There is limited access to this and most tanks. A holding tank pump out fitting on the transom has a plastic elbow installed, versus a cap. There are open plumbing fittings on the centerline aft in the lazarette. There are crimped fittings near the halon tank to starboard forward in the lazarette. The starboard forward water deck fill fitting has a plastic cap, the other water fittings have metal caps. The foredeck shower burped water and then the water stopped flowing. The shower fixture is missing and its connection point is damaged. We were unable to make water flow from the anchor wash downs. There is corrosion on a plumbing fitting on the port side of the space below the pilothouse. There is corrosion on a plumbing fitting outboard of the locker in the port cabin. There are water lines indicative of a prior water accumulation event visible in the port and starboard cabin bilge. The waterlines are up to the bottom of several tanks. The age of hoses is unknown, several hoses are likely original. Aged hoses are visible in the port and starboard cabin bilge space. There was an odor from the port head. There is corrosion on a plumbing fitting below the port head in the master (forward) stateroom. There is a leak at the port shower fixture in the master stateroom. The starboard head in the master stateroom is inoperative. We encountered several tanks which are unlabeled and we are unsure of their purpose, including a metal tank on the centerline in the master stateroom and a plastic tank to starboard in the master stateroom. The plastic tanks are either additional tanks or replacement tanks. The seat and cover for the starboard crew head are loose. There is “sand” in both crew heads. Please consider filling all tanks for a simple, practical test of their integrity. The water pressure system functioned normally. The accuracy of tank level gauges is beyond the scope of this survey. The current owner reports he only uses the two aft tanks in the engine room.

Summary: Satisfactory

Comments: The electrical system including the shore power cords, shore power inlets, batteries, wiring, circuitry components and circuit protection equipment was visually inspected and most components were tested. Overall the electrical system is in satisfactory condition. The system is Italian and includes relays and numerous subpanels. The condition and age of the batteries is beyond the scope of this inspection. There are numerous interior and exterior lights which did not illuminate. The electric stern capstans were not functional upon our arrival and the owner’s representative performed repairs and the capstans functioned. A light to port in the lazarette has no bulb, lens or cage. The cage was seen in the bilge. The indicator light on the port shore power cord’s boat end connector was not illuminated. One of the spare shore power cords has a badly damaged connector. There is a water leak through the deck at the starboard stern capstan, onto the capstan and onto the capstan and onto the transformer below. There is corrosion visible on the transformer, the condition of components inside the transformer is beyond the scope of this survey. There are loose wire connections near the starboard capstan. The lazarette water heater made a loud noise. The insulation is damaged to wires near the steering pump, to port in the lazarette. The circuit breaker for the “engine room port fan” was previously three breakers connected together, they all function independently now. The port aft engine room blower made a loud noise when energized. The Centaur battery charger, forward of the engine room, was not energized. Many of the motors are labeled 50 hertz, the U.S.A. uses a 60 hertz system. The center windshield wiper is inoperative. We could not deploy the port anchor with the remote control on the bow. The spotlight did not illuminate. Much of the electrical connections including the main and sub panels, circuit breakers and fuses are original. Several of the relay switches have broken covers at the main distribution panel to port in the pilothouse. The HF-SSB radio did not power up. Ice was forming in the saloon refrigerator. There is no power to the AC electrical outlet to starboard aft in the saloon, by the light switches. The transformer below the starboard saloon sofa felt hot. The lens for the Furuno sounder to port in the pilothouse is cracked. A fan in the air conditioner in the port cabin is in contact with something, making a noise. There was limited air flow from the air conditioner fan in the starboard cabin. The indicator light for the air conditioner in the captain’s cabin is inoperative. The paddlewheel is missing from the transducer on the port hull bottom forward. A small water heater below the galley cabinet is not secure. There was a problem with many of the AC electrical outlets, there was an open ground to several of the outlets. The G.F.C.I. outlet in the galley would not trip with our tester. The open ground condition was found with both the starboard generator and the shore power. There was a reversed hot and neutral condition at an outlet in the aft head. The combination outlet and switch pulled out of the wall in the captain’s head when we removed our tester. There are stains indicative of leaks on and near several of the sub panels, including in the master stateroom locker, port cabin locker and V.I.P. locker. There is an exposed electrical box in the locker outboard and forward of the spa tub. There were several electrical outlets in the port and starboard cabin which are not U.S. type outlets. There were also two prong type outlets. The air-conditioner in the starboard cabin is inoperative. The air conditioner in the starboard crew cabin is inoperative. There was very little air flow from the port crew air conditioner.

Summary: Satisfactory

Comments: Safety equipment for firefighting protection appears satisfactory. Many of the extinguishers are U.S.C.G. approved and have tag dates of December 15, 2012, they will come due for inspection shortly. The fixed fire extinguishing unit and several of the portable units are not U.S. Coast Guard approved units. The fixed extinguisher has no visible inspection tag and is original equipment. The AC fire pump would not energize and the system was not tested. The fire alarm system was not tested and the primary system is original (French) equipment. Personal flotation devices appear suitable for near coastal use. There are several PFDs which are not Coast Guard approved devices. Current distress signal flares are aboard. There are suitable sound signaling devices aboard. The navigational and anchor lights are properly arranged, installed and functional. There are redundant navigational lights. Based on the description of their function by the current owner, it appears that several of the primary lights are inoperative. The ground tackle including the anchor and rode was visually inspected as installed and appears satisfactory. We lifted a high water alarm sender though we did not hear a high water alarm sound. The propane grill on the flybridge uses portable cans. The current owner reports there was a door between the master (forward) stateroom and the crew owner. It has been covered. The entire length of the anchor rode was not inspected and should be inspected prior to use.

SUMMARY

The vessel is a composite fiberglass flybridge motor vessel equipped with two diesel engines and two diesel generators. The vessel was reportedly built for the charter business to Bureau Veritas (BV) class. The vessel is not currently in class and has not been maintained in class. The vessel has both [removed for privacy] (see hull and structure comments above). The current owner purchased the vessel three to four years ago as repossession from a bank. The vessel was reportedly repossessed in Hawaii. The engines are reportedly original. The current owner’s representatives disclosed that the port engine was rebuilt due to an overheating event (insurance claim) approximately two years ago. The repairs were done locally and in San Diego by an unknown vendor. The current owner disclosed that the trim tabs are fixed (do not move) and no other knowledge of any problems with the vessel. The current owner disclosed that a mechanic hit a valve and caused a minor fuel spill. The vessel appears basically structurally and mechanically sound. Many of the systems and components of the vessel are original, with no apparent or reported refits. Overall, the vessel is in marginal cosmetic condition. Upon completion of the recommendations the vessel should be suitable for its intended purpose as a near coastal cruising vessel. The value of the vessel is significantly less than similar vessels, mostly due to condition. Much of the vessel is original and there are many more deficiencies than “normal”.

Overall Summary: Satisfactory

VALUES

ACTUAL CASH VALUE	NEW REPLACEMENT VALUE	INVESTMENT
Removed for privacy	Removed for privacy	Removed for privacy

The actual cash value is the value that our research approximates the selling price of this vessel should be, at the time and place of our inspection. Consideration is given to vessel’s condition, geographic location, published listings and guides, comparable sales and listings, and market conditions. The new replacement value is the cost of this or a similar, new vessel, comparably equipped. The investment is the reported investment including purchase price and significant upgrades. No values include maintenance costs, storage or tax. In most instances the data found while researching the value is stored in our file for this survey. We primarily use market value analysis methodology for determination of value. Consideration of the listing history was considered.

Standard Form Key: All systems are rated based upon their appearance, ratings include: Not examined, Not applicable, Faulty, Marginal, Satisfactory, Good, Excellent.

RECOMMENDATIONS

These recommendations are the surveyor’s ideas and suggestions for addressing deficiencies with damaged or suspect components or systems found during survey or general improvements. The primary recommendations address safety items, structural issues, operational issues or deficiencies which the surveyor determines are of greater importance or more expense than secondary deficiencies. For instance, items that pose a risk to passenger safety or immediate property damage are listed under primary deficiencies and cosmetic concerns are addressed under secondary deficiencies. Most of the recommendations have been addressed in the comments and usually they are discussed at the time of the inspection.

PRIMARY

Display the hull identification number on the transom per federal regulations. Research and determine any significance of the U.S. provided hull identification number, versus an Azimut hull identification number, as desired.
Service and prove the passerelle properly functional if / as desired. Provide a boarding ladder which can be deployed from the water by an accidental swimmer. The passerelle is currently secured with a string, modify to eliminate any liabilities. The passerelle has wires cut near the relays, corrosion of the actuator, corrosion of the motor and chafed wires at their transom penetration.
Consider replacing the French informational placards with English placards as necessary.
Determine the extent and significance of the deteriorated plywood below the transformer to starboard in the lazarette and address as necessary.
Address the accumulation of water and fluid in the bilge in several locations including the lazarette, engine room and port and starboard cabin bilge spaces. Eliminate any leaks. Clean to remove the water/fluid to allow detection of any future weeps or leaks.
Clean the oil from the engine room bilge to prevent discharge of oil.
Free up and prove the engines’ and generators’ through hull valves properly functional.
Service as a result of leak stains from a water hose inboard forward on the port engine. Eliminate the leak and clean stains to allow detection of any future weeps or leaks.
There are wood blocks “wedged” in place and supporting the engine room sole to starboard aft, aft of the transmission and forward of the generator. Address this condition and assure it presents no liability and modify as necessary.
Either repair the blisters on the hull bottom or monitor and repair as necessary. There are a combination of types of blisters, including blisters in the laminate and blisters between the gelcoat and external coatings.
