They had some problems on the first trials and like any naval ship they just want to make sure everything is working correctly.

They never got the ship near her advertised max speed. Acceleration looks good though. O-15kts in 1000m.
Was the tidal range in Appledore always this restrictive? How did they manage when they built HMS Enterprise? |

Now you are giving us news Babcocks do no speak to anyone since they took over can you disclose without giving to much away what speed she was due to reach. Can keep watch when next on trials. Under the largest ship built in the shed was HMS Scott which was built from corner to corner with the bow overhanging the pontoon at the entrance and the door kept open all day. Shown on a Coastwatch program on the Discovery Channel recently.
