Ship Husbandry
Futureclean Marine: a specialised ship husbandry service
What is ship husbandry?
Ship husbandry is the care and maintenance of the ship. This ranges through underwater inspection and maintenance to upper and lower deck cleaning and sanitation procedures, mechanical maintenance of all areas and cleaning and maintenance procedures in machine spaces and bilges, holds, and so on. This is a very big area to cover but is crucial for the well being of the ship and ship’s staff.
Good ship husbandry is worth its weight in gold. There is regular and essential maintenance on all working systems and there is the cleaning and sanitation side. Good ship cleaning is the first line of defence against residual infection in cruise line passengers and ship’s staff, but is also the first line of defence against corrosion, contamination of holds and cargo and of course containment of oils and minimisation of oil wastes.
Yet it is very difficult to get cleaning systems working properly.
Why is this?
Well, the answer is that half the interested people consider that it is below their dignity and the other half don’t know what they are doing because they aren’t trained in what to look for and how to use the information they should have.
To that you should add the pressure from salesmen to use their products, whether fit for purpose or not (and we have seen so many products in use or offered for use which are not only unsuitable but downright dangerous) and you have a big problem which isn’t going to go away
For example, do you know what the right product to use for cleaning bilges, is? Or lines?
Are you using the right type of sanitiser?
Do you need all those cleaning products?
Does your staff know how to do the job? Could they use some training in procedures to make incredible changes to the cleanliness of the vessel? Your customers will love you!
All these questions and many others need an answer. You will get the best answers from the people who know exactly what to do and how to do it and who can guarantee the end product; especially, if they are independent of any manufacturer. This means that you will get clear and unbiased advice and an excellent workable system.
Here’s how to stop all your ship husbandry problems at once.
