Stan Tanker

This is a small tanker sold by one Dutch Company which I tried to recreate with the best details possible.

DIMENSIONS
LENGTH O.A.:54.15 m
BEAM MLD.: 12.25 m
DRAUGHT :3.10 m

It can be crewed by one, but better two or three crewmebers, 1 Captain, 1 Seaman, 1 Seaman/Machinist.

- Main Engine / Auxilliary Engines can be only started in Engine Room. Please ensure to start all Turbochargers (Air Pump), Exhaust Pumps and Fuel Pumps.
- Auxiliary Engines are full auto and will keep throttle at 1.0 with a delayed switch to low gear for better power production.
- Main Engine are both controlled with left throttle handle on Bridge, but by pushing the button "Maneuvering Mode" they will be controlled separately (Very useful as this ship does not have bow thruster)
VERY IMPORTANT: Be gentle on Engine Throttle, abrupt changes from FWD to BCK movement will cause the engine to stall and is annoying if you^re al alone without somebody in Engine Room restarting engines for you!!!
- Autopilot on Bridge is Heading Holdin Only. I am not sure Track Pilot is included in this small ship
- Mid-Ship you will find the controls for both ballast and cargo pumps and valves.
- In the same room an electronic draft monitor to check trim and heeling of the vessel during operation.
- Vessel upon spawing will be sitting by the stern, this is normal and should be compensated by filling ballast tanks or loading cargo oil/fuel
- Even though Cargo tank can hold a good deal of fluid, don't fill them completely or vessel will become a submarine!
- two working anchors (with mag-all)
- two mooring winches : 1 forward / 1 aft with mag-all
- two working fire fighting stations on deck. Extend the hose, start the pump and hold the nozzle by the handle)
- Provision Crane (the one in the plan is fully foldable but I found quite difficult to reproduce in SW so I made a fixed arm one)
- Life / Rescue Boat: it will attache automatically to the davit upon spawning and will be easy to launch and recover
- Tried to reproduce accomodations as much as possible following the plan of the ship
- Working Emergency generator which will start only if both main batteries will reach zero charge.
- Navigation lights according basic COLREG, with possibility to reproduce vessel under way, restricted maneuverability, constrained by draft, not under command, at anchor and aground.

Hope you enjoy!
