CSIRO's $120m Investigator can't plug into shore power

Posted by Unknown on Saturday, 27 September 2014

The CSIRO's new research vessel Investigator is unable to access shore power in Hobart and is running off the ship's engines.


The ship has been moved from its berth alongside the CSIRO to Macquarie Wharf following complaints by neighbours about the noise.


It is the latest in a string of issues with the $120-million flagship vessel, which was besieged by delays before eventually arriving at its home port of Hobart earlier this month, a year later than expected.
