Master Streams (Deck Guns)
Set up exposure protection master streams today. Don’t know if it was a blessing or a curse. Between the tripod mount and turret itself, I swear that thing must weigh a ton! Not to mention having to drag the 2 1/2 inch. hose lines that have to connect to it. When we called for water, the turret accidentally water hammered and almost caused some damage to itself and us. Hernandez, a guy on my team, and I were able to use our body weight to hold the lines down until Smith was able to open the turret and release the pressure from the deck gun. A good drill none the less.
