SIKULIAQ heading out the Menominee River for propulsion trials which went exceptionally well.  Next up is Builder’s Sea Trials the week of 11 November and Acceptance Trials scheduled for the week of 9 December.  Delivery will be in January followed by an extensive series of post‐delivery trials conducted by UAF before 

starting funded science in the fall of 2014.

Standing on the flying bridge (Pilothouse top) looking from port to starboard.  The orange cylinder you see in the middle of the flying bridge is the marine equivalent to a 

commercial aircrafts “black box”.

Standing on the 04 level aft of the Pilothouse.  At the base of the ladder that leads up to the flying bridge you can see the outline of a soft patch in the deck.  This soft patch can be unbolted 

and removed to allow the ship’s centerboard to be removed using a large crane.

The Winch Control Room that is just forward of the Baltic Room.  This control the CTD and Hydro winches along with the large Baltic Room door that opens on the starboard side of the ship and the Load Handling 

System for deploying science package out that door.  The window on the right looks down and into the Baltic Room while the other two windows look outsideRoom while the other two windows look outside.

The Main Lab standing in the forward outboard corner.  The final deck material is down, but mostly covered to protect it until delivery.  You can see the two chemical hoods and uni‐strut benches.  The double joiner doors on the right open into the main passageway and the double 

joiner doors at the far end open into the Wet Labjoiner doors at the far end open into the Wet Lab.

The Wet Lab.  On the right side is the door into the Baltic Room and the double joiner door on the left goes into the Main Lab.  The deck underlayment is down, but the final deck covering has not yet been poured.  The overhead ceiling panels are 

not in yet, but you can see the tracks along the bulkhead and overhead for the uni‐strut system.

The aft portion of the Electronics/Computer lab.  You are looking into the lab through after entrance.  You can see the “monitor wall” on the bulkhead set up for 9 monitors, Steve is expanding this for 15 monitors.  

To the right and outside your view is additional bench space and electronic equipment racks.

The Load Handling System (LHS) being load tested in a towing configuration.  The LHS boom will articulate down to the water surface to maintain positive control of science payloads when being deployed or recovered.  You can see the Winch Control Room just forward of it and the Science Control Room above and aft of the LHS.  Directly above the LHS is the 

workboat sitting in its boat davit.
