We’re admittedly suckers for this sort of thing. Both of us in our work lives wouldn’t hesitate to take up the offer of a plant tour, being fascinated with how things work. In the past, we’ve taken advantage of visits to the bridge that turned out to be perfunctory walk throughs, but this was an engaging and informative discussion with the crew (exceeding expectations, as they say).
We did appreciate the news about all the watertight doors to maintain buoyancy during any incident on this Chilean built vessel and understood from experience why we were issued hardhats on entry into the engine room down below.
