The work involves comprehensive maintenance and repair activities at a commercial shipyard, including renewing the transducer fairing per Coast Guard Drawing 87 WPB 165-001, servicing the sea water system by replacing valves and inspecting 8-inch and 3-inch SCH 80 steel riser pipes for corrosion, cleaning the gray water piping system, modifying the boat winch foundation with stainless steel inserts, and supporting sea trials.
