Koos, the alignment man

He asked me to picture him in action, so I did.
Working on the correct setting of the shaft in the main bearing. (note it's a huge shaft for such a relatively small ship)

So today we also had to take the so-called deflections of the crankshaft at cilinder n0. 10 (here a look inside while the lube oil pump was just stopped) andto do so we had to turn the engine slowly on the turning gear which we had to engage by hammering.....

But all went well and tomorrow we can finish it all and go for a sea trial.

Here is Koos in LARGE.....
