CAT Engine Checks

One of the reasons I really like HYG is their equipment checkout. The manufacturer of each major system comes to the factory to verify that their equipment is performing correctly.  On this day, the CAT reps were on board. CAT has a big presence in China (they own the Mercedes dealerships there too). It seems like most of the non-Chinese guys are Australians. 

They have their laptops setup on my workbench and went for it.

Success. I'm told everything checked out perfectly. 

The crane, stabilizers and generators will go through similar checks, while the boat is in the test tank (obviously you need to be able to cool the engines).

Did you forgo the standard crew quarters layout and just open it up? Can you post overall lazarette area configuration?

Thanks for letting us follow along, can't wait to see the final build!
