QUESTION:

Item OEM representative indicates sonar renewal vs overhaul may be intended – given shipment of a new unit to the CGC Sycamore homeport. Contractor requests confirmation item intent is to service/overhaul the existing sonar.

RESPONSE:

Work Item 71 will be performed as written. However, SFLC has purchased a new Forward Scan Sonar Transducer in the course of long-term maintenance planning for the WLB 225 class buoy tenders. Though not scheduled to replace the SYCAMORE’s existing transducer, it could conceivably be available should that need arise after initial inspections.

3.2.2 Inspections. Perform the following inspections (submit CIR):

NOTES

1. For the purpose of reference in this item, the shots will be referred to by numbers. Mark each shot with a removable tag. Moving inboard from the anchor, the shots will be referred to as follows: ANCHOR, Shot 1, Shot 2, Shot 3...Shot n-2, Shot n-1, Shot n, and BITTER END. These shot numbers are designated in order as existing prior to work, and will not change - although the shot order itself will change.

2. Number n in the paragraph above is equal to the number of shots per chain.

3.2.2.1 Surface preparation. Prepare the below-listed surfaces to a “Commercial Blast” standard, in accordance with SSPC-SP 6:

• All detachable links (including detachable link interior surfaces), swivels, outboard swivel shots, cats paw, pelican hook and shackles.

• Entire length of Shot 1, Shot 2, Shot n-1, and Shot n.

• 10 links per shot, each 15 links apart, on Shot 3 through Shot n-2 (for the purposes of wire diameter test - see Table I below).

3.2.2.2 Visual. Disassemble all detachable links, shackles, and swivels.

3.2.2.3 Measurement. Determine the suitability for continued service of the anchor chain assembly, by checking wire diameter dimension and six-link dimension ,using information provided in Table I (Dimensions for Condemning Anchor Chain) as guidance, as applicable:

2 1.80 53-1/2 2-1/8 1.913 56-13/16

(1) Use a micrometer, caliper or GO/NO-GO gage* to check wire diameter dimension. Gage is to be made by Contractor/repair facility in accordance with the dimensions shown in Table 1 above. Check the diameters at right angles to the link. When measuring with a micrometer or caliper take one-half the sum of the two diameters as representing the line diameter.

(2) Take six-link measurements with a load applied to the chain in order to take all slack out of the chain. Use a bar gauge to check the six-link dimension. When the gauge will not fit over six links, the chain has been stretched beyond allowable limit. Measure six links for the entire length of each shot, measuring from every third link.

*When using a GO/NO-GO gage, a failed check is to be verified by measuring with a micrometer or caliper. Measure the diameter at right angles and take one-half the sum of the two diameters as representing the link diameter. Take measurements on clean, bare metal.

NOTE

The six-link dimension test is only necessary if the chain jumps the wildcat during raising or lowering under power

3.2.3 Reassembly.

3.2.3.1 Reassemble detachable links, swivels and shackles; and repack with molybdenum disulfide grease (MIL-DTL-23549.

3.2.3.2 Change the relative position of the shots, as designated by the Coast Guard Inspector, to distribute the wear on the chain, ensuring that shot shall be rotated end for end upon reinstallation, as follows:

ANCHOR, Shot 3... Shot n-2, Shot n-1, Shot n, Shot 1, Shot 2, BITTER END.

NOTE

Detachable link components are not interchangeable.

3.2.3.3 Renew all taper pins and lead plugs for the detachable links.

3.2.3.4 Renew all detachable taper pin and link assemblies and associated link plugs.

3.2.3.5 Renew shackle at bitter end of chain.

3.2.4 Chain renewal. If a Change Request has been authorized and released, renew designated section of chain with material conforming to MIL-C-24633.

3.2.5

Touch-up preservation. Prepare and touch-up coat all new and disturbed surfaces to match existing adjacent surfaces, in accordance with COMDTINST M10360.3, Appendix A (Cutter and Boat Exterior Painting Systems). Abide by all touch-up requirements outlined in SFLC Std Spec 0000, Appendix A (Requirements for Preservation of Ship Structures).

3.2.6 Color coating. Using the coating system specified for “Anchor/Anchor Chain” in COMDTINST M10360.3, Appendix A (Cutters and Boats Exterior Painting Systems), do the following:

3.2.6.1 Coat the following shots:

Shot n-1 Black Shot n Black Shot 1 Yellow Shot 2 Red

3.2.6.2 Coat and wire (CRES wire) all detachable links (red, white, and blue), adjacent chain links, shackles, and swivels in accordance with Attached Figure “Painting and Markings On Mooring Chain”, using the , and COMDTINST M10360.3. Remove all existing CRES wire prior to the installation of new markings.

3.2.7 Chain restowing. When directed by the Coast Guard Inspector, reassemble the anchor and anchor chain; restow the anchor chain in its chain locker, free for running, with the anchor properly hawsed and secured with the chain stopper set. Ensure that (1) the bitter ends of the chain are securely fastened in the chain locker with new bitter end shackles, conforming to Fed Spec RR-C-271, Type IV-A, Class 3, Grade A; (2) the ground tackle is kept ready for use, (3) nothing interferes with a readiness to veer or slip the anchors, (4) the detachable links located just inboard of the riding stopper and the detachable link tool set are readily accessible for use in slipping the anchor chains in an emergency, and (5) the anchor has a crown buoy attached, with sufficient length of rope to facilitate indicate the depths of water in which moored. In addition, do the following:

• Lead the bitter ends down and through the deck bolts in the chain locker and secure to the chain locker pad eye.

• Back out the chains to ensure the chain stopper is set properly.

3.3 Operational test – post repairs. After completion of work, the Contractor shall witness an operational test (by Coast Guard personnel) of the anchor chain assembly to prove satisfactory operating condition, by releasing the chain stoppers and lower both anchors under power to the drydock floor (or waterline, as applicable), letting out one additional shot, and raising again to ensure chains run on the wildcats without binding.

3.3.1 Correct any discrepancies, house the anchors and set the anchor chain pelican hooks.

3.3.2 Submit a CFR.
