Title: tug deck gratings
Post by: jenga on February 08, 2021, 11:40:08 am
Greetings , back to my tug build after 3 long years, remodelling new house. on my tug there are 4 gratings over the boiler room shown on plan, these are flush with the deck, no coaming or covers, is that correct? the 4 in total have an area of 3.1 meters which seems a big hole to have in the boiler room roof, the deck is approx 12 feet above waterline, but a good downpour would be bad enough, without sea spray, just wondering. thanks Jenga
