Thank you for your comments.

Andrew, the tests that are considered to be related to the proof of design are carried out usually only for the first vessel in the series. So, provided that the speed and endurance tests are in order, turning tests are not carried out for the rest of the series.

Cool

Great photos Vlad must be very interesting to be on board during ship trials. I find it interesting that they dont do the turn for all the ships during sea trials I would have thought they would do all the same tests on all ships.

cheers

A bit more than 10 minutes to go from 23 kn to 0.5 kn, and we did not do the turn, as this was done only for the first vessel of the series.

Hi lappino. Nice set of shots. Interesting. Couple of questions....How long to stop from full ahead to stop and what about the turning circle 360. Thanks and congratulationsfor the shots.

Thanks, Emmannuel. Even checking the emergency lights positions on the lashing bridges is already quite a task, and there are many more of them in cargo holds...
