what was they supposed to do with the boiler tubes all blocked up with ashes

[@vincentharriman3283]

It was the engineer officer who was to blame for not doing his job. However it was an offence to discharge soot as they did.

[@DrewSavo]

Proper procedure for de-sooting the funnels when they were that bad would’ve been to dry-dock the ship, then send a crew down to clean by hand. Would’ve taken at least a month depending on the number of men involved. That’s why they need to clear it themselves every 24 hours.
