Portal cranes 80, 82 and 92 receive summertime facelifts to ward off oxidation, corrosion
Crane 92 (pictured in 2024, before repainting) will soon sport a darker blue look at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard & Intermediate Maintenance Facility in Bremerton, Washington. A six-person team of painters is working hard throughout the short Pacific Northwest summer to repaint cranes 80, 82 and 92. The paints used are silicone alkyd enamel, with a higher gloss sheen added for ease of cleaning purposes, and for better UV deflection. (U.S. Navy photo by Wendy Hallmark)
