Life Raft
Service
   At twelve thirty we arrived at Ocean
Passage in Penang, directed to park at the back of the building, we were met by
a smiley young man who helped us unload. Our life raft and Bob’s (Wind
Witch) were soon trundling toward the test area in this huge warehouse. Very carefully our lid was removed.
  A very quiet man came in to deal with
Bob’s and both men gingerly felt about to disconnect
the automatic inflation. Ours was soon
exposed.
   I mooched about and loved the tool boards with outlines drawn behind each tool. Bear settled to wait.
  The work
board, oooooo two chaps
condemned.
 One of the
condemned, held together with much gaffer tape and very saggy
looking.
   Finally, our chap
popped up.
 Out of date emergency stuff had
a good rummage – to be replaced before repacking of course.
 There we are on
the work board - yay.
   Bob’s chap being
inflated.
 After a pleasant couple of hours we
bade ‘farewell’ to the two men and the lady, one last look at our trusty little steed – about to have his pressure tests
done. Neither of us actually wish to see him again, just good to know he will be
serviced and sleeping back on deck.
ALL IN ALL A HAPPY
EXPERIENCE
VERY CAREFUL, PERNICKETY MEN AND GOOD TO
WATCH |
