Engine-room:
Main engines and gear boxes have been overhauled, including replacement of entire stern tubes,
New Zero speed electrical stabilisers,
New AC unit,
Over 150 kilogram of rust removed….

Interior:
All areas have been sandblasted, fwd fuel tank top top in lower guest cabin has been replaced.

Due to the state of the vessel, and lack of maintenance over the last years, 80% of superstructure weldings to main deck structure had to be cut out and replaced.
