Holy Loch Fleet Mooring Underwater Inspection Report.

Abstract

This report contains the results of the inspection of several fleet moorings located in Holy Loch, United Kingdom. A CHESNAVFACENGCOM-assigned Engineer-in-Charge and divers from Underwater Construction Team One conducted the inspection from 25 April - 05 May, 1984. The A-1, A-2, and AFDB-7 moorings were found to be in good condition and suitable for continued fleet use. However, the cause of the list in the A-2 bow buoy should be investigated at the earliest possible time. The YFNB-31 was found to be only in fair condition because of current mooring practices not considered in the initial mooring design. Specific comments concerning each of these moorings are included within this report. (Author)
