Fire in the Engine Room
Zero Thrust Notify Crew Disengage Both Engines Secure Both Engines Secure Fuel Cutoffs Engineer view CCTV to check for fire On Coxswain command, energize FM200 system Secure all non-essential power at DC & AC panels Set reflash watch
Loss of Steering
Zero Thrust
Notify Crew
Disengage both engines
Transfer control to opposite steering station and test
Check circuit breaker (24V DC Engine Bus)
Engineer check CCTV to ensure safe to enter E/R
Station Crewmember with fire extinguisher
Check bilges for oil and hydraulic system for leaks
If safe to enter Laz, check for leaks and test steering system at proportional valves
If no response, connect backup steering console
Struck Submerged Object
Zero Thrust
Notify Crew
Disengage Clutches
Engineer check CCTV, Aux, and Laz for flooding
Crew check forepeak and survivor compartment for flood
Conduct steering checks (including buckets and intcptrs)
Check for vib/flood/damage to propulsion sys at various engine speeds while disengaged and engaged
If necessary, operate at RPM below range of vibrations
Loss of Lube Oil Pressure
Zero Thrust Disengage affected engine Secure affected engine Engineer check CCTV to ensure safe to enter E/R Fire extinguisher on scene Check bilge for oil Check system for leaks Check oil sump for quality/quantity Check coolant tank DO NOT START ENGINE IF CAUSE NOT DETERMINED OR REPAIRED
