CPH/CTHs with sound arrive.

Five cubic metres of sound equipped CPH/CTHs were delivered today to the Eureka Offices and distribution has now commenced with the first orders going in tomorrow's post.
As is the normal practice, those who have fully paid models on order will be contacted first to confirm order details after which the models will be put in the post. Anyone wishing to short-circuit this process can ring the Eureka office.

For those who are interested in these things we have been advised that the Tian Yun He was not diverted to Melbourne. It sat off the Central Coast for three days because of port congestion.

When the Boat Came In:

The Tian Yun He arrived at Port Botany last Sunday which was four days later than expected. Our freight forwarder believes that it was diverted to Melbourne first because of congestion at Port Botany.
Consequently, we have been advised to expect delivery of the CPH/CTHs next Monday or Tuesday.

CPH/CTHs with sound on their way.



In keeping with Eureka's policy of providing maximum information on its projects, the attached photo shows the Tian Yu He which has been chartered to carry the Eureka CPH/CTHs from Shenzhen to Port Botany. The last report that we have from the ship's captain is that the ship is in the South China Sea at position 22.11587/114.2729 heading for Port Botany at a steady speed of 9.5 knots on target for a 4 August arrival.

Thanks Dieselfan

R Class - The first complete sample.




A couple of minor adjustments, the addition of sound and some artwork and the R class is ready to go into full production.

PS. TO SHIPPING NEWS:

I guess I should have mentioned that the cargo will include the sound equipped CPH/CTHs.

MORE GOODIES FROM THE FACTORY:

One of the items brought back from the factory this week is a complete engineering sample of the "R" class. Complete in all details including smoke deflectors, the sample is currently being painted after under-going some exhaustive test running.

Photos should be available on this blog over the coming weekend.
