AGOR 28: SIO Shipyard Representative Bi-Weekly Progress ReportSIO Shipyard Representative Bi-Weekly Progress Report
Abstract
AGORs 27 and 28 are new "Ocean Class" research vessels being built at the Dakota Creek Industries Inc. (DCI) of Anacortes, WA shipyard under the supervision of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), with delivery of AGOR 27 schedule for late 2014 and AGOR 28 in 2015. AGOR 27, first of the class, will be named after Neil Armstrong. AGOR 28, second of the class, will become the R/V Sally Ride. The operators provided a detailed review of the pilot house face arrangements. Operator comments were then used to make cut and paste drawings of the center helm station and the wing consoles. Comments on the fiddle board were also provided. ALION used photos of these drawings to produce detailed CAD versions for review and comment. The operators are looking for more clarity on exactly how the Kongsberg Autopilot will function. In particular, how will the six power modes be used, if at all, and will the operators be able to control the pitch and rpm independently using the combinator propeller controls.
