The Edgar B. Speer had been sailing on an extension for 5-year survey and drydocking, which was due to expire on January 30, 2025. Undoubtedly that has been done, the ABS and US Coast Guard marine surveyors will sign off on the certificates once the engine installation has been completed and everything tested. They will also check that any repairs have been completed to the satisfaction of the marine surveyors.

Anyone know or have any information regarding when the Speer will be out then for this season? They are getting new engines put into them I think this year and was just curious and wondering just when they will have that job done and then be out sailing this season? Also, did the Speer get their 5-year survey & drydocking done as well with a new paint job? Any information is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
