INTRODUCTION
Attached is a series of images relating to the works in progress on the Vessel.
Visits were carried out by Arrow at Mangusta facility: Harry Noonan and Matthew Wood.
• The Wiring is ongoing but actually 100% in place in forward guest areas.
• Fairing work on the exterior is ongoing as well as evidence of first coats of topcoat –this is an excellent development and this first coat is not only a filler coat but is used to sand back and iron out imperfections-The chosen Hull colour looks great.
• The teak on the main deck is laid.
• Plumbing pipework is continuous at this stage.
• Main engines in place for pre-alignment. They will be removed for further fitting and framework in 2 weeks’ time and put back in place permanently in May 2023.
• Guest areas and Boss cabins are joineries orientated. It is pre-joinery at this stage so we await images of real progress over the following weeks.
