The bow she tells you not to worry about.

dianethomson385 :

It’s so good to have you back regularly posting Captain Kate. You’ve really been missed. Every day we learn something new ❤️

jsjejdhbdbejejrjhr :

if you have a chance would you mind explaining what that huge grate was just in front of the patch?

Travisc :

Cathodic Protection… me all day 🤪 I’m an corrosion engineer, I’ve worked on dozens of cruise ships

O-P-U-L-E-N-C-E :

It’s always crazy to me to see just how large ships really are. Those bow thrusters are MASSIVE.

kathiThe Colorista2 :

Fascinating. I absolutely love all this knowledge you’re imparting on all of us. Love your posts Capt. Kate

Alfons :

They didn't measure the steel, they measured the paint film thickness.

Chairman meow :

Omg I’m literally a Cathodic protection inspection!! Impressed and sacrificial systems are used not only on ships, but also metal docks/piers, pipelines, and even bridges!! Any metal submerged in a ‘common electrolyte’

Jordan :

So does that mean I could get an electric shock from touching the hull?

captlegodan :

We have that on HMS Belfast on the Thames just as a precaution as she is over 80.

koray :

I see what???

John Thomas :

Our passenger ferry use sacrificial anode at the propeller shafts.

bobacroc66 :

If you crank up the ICCP to high, it fries the anti fouling around the cathode

myladygrayfox :

Water pipes from your water utility use catholic protection as well 🥰

Brugg Pethke :
