A View From Another Side

During the dry dock phase, the ship gets put up on blocks so the underwater hull inspection can take place. I, along with about 10 other crew members, took a 'tour' under the ship. Quite a site considering you usually don't get this view.

AFM Goes into Dry Dock

The Africa Mercy is currently in Dry Dock right now. We'll be in there for about 10 days or so. We will undergo our yearly underwater hull survey that's required by Malta as well as install a 25 ton crane on Deck 8. We will also install our lifeboat guards as well as do some additional testing during this time. 

The Dining Room of the Africa Mercy

Here's the picture I promised you of the linoleum that was just laid down in the Dining Room of the Africa Mercy. Only some of the tables have been reinstalled so we have a bit of work left to do in that area.
