The P&O Ferry Norbank is a sleek and reliable vessel renowned for its efficient service and comfortable accommodations. With spacious interiors, amenities, and top-notch safety features, it ensures a smooth journey for passengers across the seas.
However, this 17,000 ton ship needs to be cleaned in order to continue a smooth operation and the job falls to dock workers in Merseyside. The job is no walk in the park and requires meticulous planning from all involved.

Imagine painting that with a hand roller. Bloody Nora.

Clickbait title, that is not restoring, that is maintenance.

I do like Bob The Builder telling me how ships are cleaned and painted. 😊

And what’s about parts, which are covered by wooden pylons?

@RangieNZ 22 дня назад

They didn't say if it was done in this case, but normally, part way through the work, they will re-flood the dock, move the ship a metre or so forward/back, then pump it out again. The areas that were on the supports are then cleaned and painted.

I mean, you wonder if the people on wooden ships stranded at sea, could have eaten the shellfish living on their boats.

Before the eco-loons took over, copper-based anti-fouling paint would last for years

Yea really, so sad that we have to take the well-being of marine life into consideration now a days😢

@jobathano1660 2 дня назад

Yes why not start using TPT again, or maybe even finding something even more toxic. The paint used in the video is most likely copper based.

How about DREDGING out the area back of the Dry Dock of the MUD ?🤔

Nice ship apart from the scum that own it sadly.

This is less "restoring" anything as much as just "powerwashing the hull of the ferry", akin to a car going through the car wash rather than a restoration.
