The diver put their hands on all features to feel for any dents, scrapes, scratches, etc. The diver's helmet camera with lights fed the video to the video recorder and captured the condition of the features; however, the water was cloudy or murky, with poor visibility. The recording captured the diver's comments during the dive, as well.\n\n![](_page_2_Picture_3.jpeg)\n\nSeptember 4, 2022\n\nThe dive plan identified the features of the hull bottom below the waterline to inspect visually and physically. The features include:\n\n- Bow Thruster and Cavity\n- Stabilizers Port and Starboard\n- Main Shafts, Port and Starboard\n- Propellers, Port and Starboard\n- Rudders, Port and Starboard\n- Stern Thruster and Cavity\n- Thru-Hull Valve openings\n- Transducer Depth Sensor\n\nThe dive found the condition of the hull to be free of damage or significant defects, although sea growth covers the entire area below the waterline.\n\nOne maintenance item noted is the Bow Thruster anode bolt is loose, allowing the anode to rattle.\n\nExtended Bow thruster operation could break the anode free and damage the Bow Thruster. A diver can correct this maintenance item or fix it after haul-out.\n\nYour representative was present at the dive and received the video download on-site when the dive was complete. A preliminary assessment after the dive did not identify any damage. The visual inspection of the hull below the waterline and running gear features, and review of the video record did not find any damage or significant defects.\n\nThe diver video is useful; however, a more detailed inspection is necessary after the vessel haul-out and the bottom is power washed to clear away the sea growth.\n\nRespectfully,\n\nDexter White EOCS, President +1 (860) 857-1798 +1 (860) 859-7936 dextera1@msn.com dexter@eocs.us\n\n![](_page_3_Picture_1.jpeg)\n\n## **HARRINGTON DIVING & MARINE SERVICES**\n\n32 South End Plaza, New Milford, CT 06776 860.488.0988 | www.HarringtonDMS.com | Brittany@HarringtonDMS.com\n\nEnclosure (1) to File E2201-3\n\n![](_page_3_Picture_5.jpeg)\n\n**INSPECTION REPORT** 09/01/2022\n\n**Prepared for:**\n\nDexter White Engineering Operations and Certification Services (ECOS) 16 Whitehall Pond Mystic, CT 06355\n\n**Project:** Lady May Dive Inspection at Steelpointe Harbor 10 East Main Street Bridgeport, CT 06608\n\n**Re: Lady May Dive Inspection at Steelpointe Harbor, Bridgeport, CT**\n\n## TABLE OF CONTENTS\n\n11\n\n| Cover Page……………………………………………………………………………… 1          |  |\n|-----------------------------------------------------|--|\n| Table of Contents……………………………………………………………………… 2      |  |\n| Location Map<br>& Time Log…………………….…………………………………… 3 |  |\n| Inspection Summary…………………………………………………………………. 4      |  |\n\nPage **2** of **5**\n\n**Re: Lady May Dive Inspection at Steelpointe Harbor, Bridgeport, CT**\n\n**LOCATION MAP & TIME LOG**\n\n![](_page_5_Picture_3.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_5_Picture_4.jpeg)\n\nVessel: Lady May Location: 41° 10' 26.7\" N, 073° 10' 51.9\" W Date of inspection: August 25, 2022 Time on Site: 1000 Time in Water: 1107 Time out Water: 1228 Time left Site: 1450 Max Water Depth: 20 FSW Dive Inspector: Peter Harrington, NBIS Dive Tender: Brittany Harrington\n\nPage **3** of **5**\n\n#### **Re: Lady May Dive Inspection at Steelpointe Harbor, Bridgeport, CT**\n\n## **INSPECTION SUMMARY**\n\nOn August 25, 2022 Harrington Diving & Marine Services (HDMS) conducted a Level I underwater inspection of various components of the Lady May Feadship superyacht docked at Steelpointe Harbor located in Bridgeport, CT led by Peter Harrington (NBIS, Diver). The Level I inspection includes a close visual examination of the entire submerged components of the vessel. Although the Level I inspection is often referred to as a \"swim-by\" inspection, it is to be detailed enough to detect obvious damage or deterioration. The results of the Level I inspection will provide a general overview of the underwater condition of the vessel.\n\nLady May was built in 2014 and has an aluminum hull that is 151' long and 30' wide. Lady May at the time of dive was located at position 41° 10' 26.7\" N, 073° 10' 51.9\" W. We received a dive plan from EOCS of all the components that were to be looked at for defects or unusual conditions. Components included:\n\n- Bow\n- Bow Thruster and cavity\n- Stabilizers (Port & Starboard)\n- Main Shafts, Struts, Propellers (Port & Starboard)\n- Rudders (Port & Starboard)\n- Stern Thruster and cavity\n- Transom (Athwart ship; Port to Starboard)\n- Thru Hull Valve Openings\n- Note All Unusual Marine Growth\n- Note All Scrapes in Paint\n- Note All Scratches on the Hull\n- Note Any Unusual Damage to Any Components\n\n**Bow: Good -** No cracks or signs of stress in bow area and in front of keel.\n\n**Bow Thruster: Fair -** A loose hex bolt anode was found on the outside of the bow thruster housing. Coating loss inside of bow thruster was noted probably due to deferred cleaning where barnacles got tied up on the fins and scraped the paint.\n\n**Port Stabilizer: Good -** Nothing to report good condition.\n\n**Starboard Stabilizer: Good -** Barnacle growth, no coating loss, no damage that would indicate evidence of a collision, where stabilizer meets hull there is no damage.\n\n**Shafts: Good -** Marine growth was found on the interfaces.\n\n**Port Propeller: Good -** Prop speed, minimal growth, no nicks or deflection to report.\n\n**Starboard Propeller: Good -** Prop speed, no nicks or deflection to report.\n\n**Port Rudder: Good -** Less than 10% coating loss on rudders outside vertical face.\n\n**Starboard Rudder: Good -** Less than 10% coating loss with hard marine growth.\n\n**Stern Thruster & Cavity: Good -** Prop speed, very clean, two anodes on the stern thruster housing have a 20% loss on.\n\n**Transom: Good** - Nothing to report good condition.\n\n**Thru Hull: Good -** No thru-hulls had any visible damage. Some had light soft marine growth.\n\nPage **4** of **5**\n\n#### **Re: Lady May Dive Inspection at Steelpointe Harbor, Bridgeport, CT**\n\n**Keel: Good -** Intermittent marine growth, 2' L hard marine growth followed by 3' of clean keel was observed full length of keel. No cracks at the keel hull joint.\n\n11\n\n**Hull: Good -** No evidence of significant stress on the hull was fund, no detection of filler for scratches or chips in paint.\n\n**Hull Paint: Good -** Less than 5% coating loss was observed.\n\n#### **Condition Rating Key:**\n\n**Good:** No visible damage or only minor damage is noted. Elements may show very minor deterioration. No repairs are required.\n\n**Fair:** All primary structural elements are sound, but minor to moderate defects or deterioration are observed. Repairs may be carried out with moderate urgency.\n\n**Poor:** Very advanced deterioration, overstressing, or breakage has resulted in localized failure(s) of primary components. Repairs may need to be carried out on a very priority basis with strong urgency.\n\nReport By: Peter Harrington\n\nReviewed By: Brittany Harrington\n\nPage **5** of **5**\n\nEnclosure (2) To File: E2201-3 September 4, 2022\n\nDIVER PHOTOS – MY LADY MAY\n\n![](_page_8_Picture_5.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_8_Picture_6.jpeg)\n\n11\n\n![](_page_8_Picture_7.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_8_Picture_9.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_8_Picture_10.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_8_Picture_11.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_8_Figure_12.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_8_Picture_13.jpeg)\n\nStarboard Stabilizer Starboard Stabilizer\n\n![](_page_8_Picture_15.jpeg)\n\nPort Prop Port Prop\n\n![](_page_9_Picture_4.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_9_Picture_6.jpeg)\n\nStarboard Prop Starboard Prop\n\n![](_page_9_Picture_8.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_9_Picture_10.jpeg)\n\nPort Rudder Port Rudder\n\n![](_page_9_Picture_12.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_9_Picture_13.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_9_Picture_14.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_10_Picture_2.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_10_Picture_3.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_10_Picture_5.jpeg)\n\nStern Thruster Stern Thruster\n\n![](_page_10_Picture_7.jpeg)\n\n![](_page_10_Picture_8.jpeg)\n\nBow Thruster Loose Bolt\n\n![](_page_10_Picture_10.jpeg)","body_zh":null,"key_entities":["Je"],"ecf_references":[],"word_count":1301,"status":"published","published_at":"2022-09-28 00:00:00","created_at":"2022-09-28","updated_at":"2026-07-07 08:30:34"}
