Celtics bouyancy

I have fitted screw caps in buoyancy tanks due to Dell quay finding they leaked..
I am reminding you that they are buoyancy  tank.. not a handy little place to put bits. Geoff

Saw this, and I was aware of the DQ swamp test. I've been interested to see how it developed.

Have you managed to run a test with now AIR TIGHT tanks either end. Is this sufficient to keep the gunwhales above the water line when Celtic is crewed.

I noted DQ were looking at even more buoyancy beyond sealing the tanks.

Kind Regards
