Every Day checks in Engine Room Rounds from Funnel to Tunnel on Ship

Every Day checks in Engine Room Rounds

from Funnel to Tunnel on Ship

When a duty engineer is taking rounds, half of the problems or troubleshooting can

be done by them, if they check the items below given properly. This is for a specific

ship, so some things can vary, but mostly things will be same. This piece of

information gives idea to the engineer as what they have to and what not to.

This is also useful when the engine room is being put in to UMS operations.
