Truth's Conception

3 posts
  1. Hi folks,

     

    Truth is asking for ideas to help rethink how the Conception is rebuilt. If you've ever been on any of the Truth Aquatic boats, this is a hard request as the boats are pretty nice. Here is their last update that asks for input.

    "While estimates of the time it will take to fully repair the Conception vary wildly depending on who you talk to, one thing we all agree on is that this boat WILL be back. Currently the repair effort is focused on removing all the boats machinery, storage tanks, and hull fittings. Most of these items will be reused in the "new" Conception. This brings me to something very exciting: it has always been said that the Conception was built with all the knowledge learned from building the Truth, and the Vision built with the knowledge from the Conception. Well, because the repairs needed are so extensive it gives us an opportunity to look closely at exactly how the boat is put back together. We will be making changes to the layout of the shower room, replacing tons of fixtures throughout the boat, and in general doing everything we never thought to do when the boat was first built. I would encourage anyone who has suggestions about additions or changes you might want to see on the Conception to e-mail us with your ideas. We can't guarantee that we will be able to turn the sundeck into a giant hot-tub or cut the travel time to the islands in half but we will do everything we can to make sure that the Conception comes back better than ever!

  2. It is always great to have input in these cases!

     

    Thanks for posting this Joe!

     

    And thanks to Chris for asking the questions in the first place!!

     

    hmmm, first two on my list are already no-go's! ;-)

  3. Its been many a year since a trip on this boat but I have history with her.

    Suggestions

     

    Showers in bow took along time for hot water to arrive. Flash heater would fix that

    Dedicated camera table. Thats one just for photo nuts like me-no food or drink on them. Rails around for rough weather to keep cameras on tables.

    Better ventalation in bunk room

    More storage for photo folks like me

    Hang the guy who stole her or take diving without a tank your choice

     

    Hope some of these help Mark Cortright
