Wartsila Diesel Acquires
Lindholmen Motor
Wartsila Diesel of Finland and
the Nordstjernan Group of Sweden
have agreed on the sale of Lindhol-
men Motor AB and its subsidiary,
Scandinavian Governor Services
AB, to Wartsila. The agreement,
which covers Lindholmen's com-
plete production and after-sales op-
erations, is subject to the approval
of the authorities of Finland and
Sweden.
Gothenburg-based Lindholmen
Motor is one of the last units in the
Nordstjernan Group manufacturing
marine equipment. Its turnover in
1985 was FIM 58 million (about
$11.8 million), and it employs a staff
of about 100. Over the past years the
factory in Gothenburg has concen-
trated on the manufacture of Piel-
stick diesel engines for ships. How-
ever, the percentage of turnover ac-
counted for by service and spare
parts has grown rapidly in recent
years.
Wartsila is one of the world's
leading manufacturers of diesel en-
gines. Its production range includes
Wartsila Vasa and Wartsila Nohab
engines of the company's own de-
sign, and Sulzer, Pielstick, and
MAN B&W engines under license.

Voyager Management Asks
For Title XI From MarAd
To Build Passenger Ship
The Maritime Administration has
received an application from Voyag-
er Management, Inc., a subsidiary of
Voyager Cruise Lines, Washington,
D.C., for a Title XI guarantee to aid
in financing the construction of a
coastal cruise vessel.
The diesel-powered vessel will
have an approximate length of 220
feet, a molded beam of 44 feet and
will be able to accommodate 132
passengers. It is expected to operate
on the East Coast and in the Carib-
bean.
Moss Point Marine of Escatawpa,
Miss., is the proposed builder of the
vessel which is scheduled for de-
livery next J uly.
If approved, the Title XI guaran-
tee would cover $10,342,500 or
about 75 percent of the estimated
actual cost of $13,515,000 to build
the cruise vessel.
Long Beach Yard Awarded
$22.7-Million Navy Contract
To Overhaul Destroyer
The Long Beach Naval Shipyard
in California has won a contract for
a $22.7-million overhaul of the de-
stroyer USS Fletcher (DD-992), sav-
ing the jobs of some 1,000 employees
that were to have been laid off.
Commissioned in 1980, the Fletcher
is a ship of the Spruance Class built
by Ingalls that carries a crew of
about 320. The overhaul work has
commenced and is scheduled for
completion in September 1987.

Bethlehem Yard Receives
To Repair RRF Reefer
Davi d Watson, general man-
ager of Bethlehem Steel Corpora-
tion's Sparrows Point yard, recently
announced the receipt of a $1.9-mil-
lion contract for work on the S.S.
Cape Alava, a ship assigned to the
Ready Reserve Force (RRF).
Mr. Watson stated that the
award was made by the American
Foreign Shipping Co., Inc., acting as
agent for the U.S. Department of
Transportation, Maritime Adminis-
tration.
The ship is due for general main-
tenance, repairs, preservation and
modifications. I t is expected to be
completed in mid-November.
The Cape Alava, stationed in the
J ames River at Fort Eustis, Va., is a
general and refrigerated cargo car-
rier with a length of 572 feet,
breadth of 75 feet and full load dis-
placement of about 21,000 tons. It
was built in 1962 for Farrell Lines as
the S.S. African Cornet.
The Towmaster Nozzle/Rudder System
can cut your turning circle by 70%
The Towmaster can give you this kind
of performance because of its unique
triple-rudder design. Each rudder, by
itself, produces a higher lift-to-drag ratio
than conventional centerline rudders.
Turning diameter test results
Together, they create a cascade effect
that can allow 60
0
helmangles before
rudder stall occurs.
Circle 154on Reader Service Card
And because the Towmaster also re-
duces rudder torque and makes more
efficient use of propeller thrust, vessel
operation is easier and less fatiguing.
The Michigan Wheel Towmaster Nozzle/
Rudder System. I t's proven its ability
to increase maneuverability and overall
operating efficiency in over 100 applica-
tions. To learn how it can do the same
for you, contact Michigan Wheel for
complete facts and the name of the
distributor nearest to you.

If your vessel has a ducted propeller
system, Michigan Wheel's Towmaster
Nozzl e/Rudder Systemcan give you
a dramatic improvement in maneuver-
ability and
turning effi-
ciency. In fact,
if your vessel
presently has
a fixed nozzle
system, tests
prove the
Towmaster
Nozzl e/
Rudder Systemcould reduce your
turning circle by 70%. If yours is an
open propeller system, you can expect
an improvement of up to 60%.
Petrobras Will Order 21
New Tankers At Total
Cost Of $840 Million
Brazil's state-owned oil company,
Petrobras, is reported set to order
21 tankers this year at a total cost of
$840 million. With a total capacity
of more than 800,000 dwt, they
would comprise five supertankers of
more than 100,000 dwt each, and 16
small products carriers for coastal
service. According to Petrobras
president Ozires Silva, all of the
orders will be placed with Brazilian
shipyards. The first contracts to be
placed, for five of the smaller tank-
ers, will go to the Caneco, Maua, and
Verolme yards.

rongen, Ltd., a diversified invest-
ment banking firm based in New
York. BIW was formerly owned by
Congoleum Corporation, headquar-
tered in Portsmouth, N.H. Gibbons,
Green is a well-established and ac-
tive investment banking firm, which
since 1969 has invested in 20 compa-
nies that continue to operate inde-
pendently. The purchase price was
not disclosed, but estimates put it at
about $500 million.
BIW, recognized as an unusually
capable and growing shipyard, is
currently completing construction
of the last of 24 guided missile fri-
gates of the FFG-7 class. The yard
now has under contract six Aegis
cruisers, and last year won a $321.9-
million contract as lead shipyard for
the design and construction of the
Navy's new Aegis destroyer, the Ar-
leigh Burke (DDG-51). The compa-
ny's present shipbuilding backlog is
well in excess of $1 billion. In addi-
tion, BIW is actively involved in
Navy overhaul and repair work. In
addition to the yard at Bath, it oper-
ates a repair facility in Portland,
Maine.
Edward W. Gibbons of Gib-
bons, Green stated: "We made an
investment in Bath Iron Works be-
cause for decades it has demon-
strated real leadership as a surface
combatant shipbuilder for the U.S.
Navy. In addition, it has proven
very competitive in the ship over-
haul market and has built a wide
variety of merchant ships in the
past. BIW has been a world leader
in shipbuilding technology, and we
are committed to supporting the
shipyard with new systems and cap-
ital investments to assure that it
remains at the head of the state of
the art."
William E. Haggett, president
and chief executive officer of BIW,
said: "We expect that business with-
in the shipyard will continue under
the same management organization.
Moreover, BIW is presently increas-
ing employment by adding technical
staff and mechanics and no change
is anticipated in that pattern, nor
will there be any changes to labor
contracts or ongoing relationships
with the U.S. Navy.
"If anything, BIW as a company
will have more autonomy than in
the past. While Gibbons, Green and
other investors will own the ship-
yard, they understand that the ship-
building expertise resides here and
plan to give BIW the support and
flexibility required to achieve the
company's overall objective, which
is to retain its position as a recog-
nized leader in its markets," Mr.
Haggett concluded.

The ships were designed by the
Sparrows Point yard's engineering
department and M. Rosenblatt &
Sons, Inc. of New York. Each ship
has a 499-foot length overall, 72-foot
beam and a 51-foot depth. Once
delivered, they will be operated by
civilian crews under the direction of
the Military Sealift Command, and
will be primarily used to conduct
ocean surveys and provide scientific
data.
For free color literature on the
shipbuilding services and facilities
offered by Bethlehem Steel's Spar-

Hempel, the worldwide supplier
of specialist coatings to the marine,
offshore, container and general in-
dustries, has launched a major cam-
paign to emphasize its reputation
for quality and service. Using the
slogan "Hempel's Service: That's
the Spirit," the campaign is aimed
at drawing attention to the steps the
company has taken internally over
the last six months to improve still
further its back-up services to cus-
tomersparticularly on the techni-
cal side.
With the help of specially ap-
pointed management consultants,
Hempel identified a total of 86 indi-
vidual service areas of significance.
These were formulated into an over-
all "service campaign" during a
number of special internal service
seminars held by the company at
which a service coordinator was ap-
pointed for each of Hempel's 29
associate companies worldwide and
given the responsibility for imple-
menting the new service concept
into his own associate company.
These special service seminars
were followed by a number of inter-
nal service courses that were at-
tended by all Hempel employees
3,000 of them worldwide.
Each Hempel company selected a
number of service areas that are
now being independently monitored
and graded to assess performance. If
a particular service area has a prob-
lem, steps are taken immediately to
correct it. A different set of service
areas is selected for monitoring and
analyzing every quarter.
The service concept is backed by
an extensive advertising campaign
and distribution of literature.

UPDATE
Vol vo Pent a' s New 61 And 71 Series
For Wor kboat s Devel oped Usi ng
Advanced Comput er Techni ques
Trademark of I NCO
Volvo Penta's new 61 and 71 Se-
ries are two new designs developed
with the aid of advanced computer
techniques. These in-line six-cylin-
der marine diesels are direct in-
jected, turbocharged and after-
cooled and are said to give the boat
operator outstanding performance,
increased operational reliability, re-
duced exhaust emissions, and im-
proved overall economy.
In order to give the engine block
maximum rigidity without increas-
ing the total weight, Volvo Penta
has exploited the latest computer
techniques (Finite Element Analy-
sis), making it possible to signifi-
cantly increase power outputs com-
pared to previous 6- and 7-liter die-
sel engines.
The TAMD 61A and 71A have the
following advanced features: new
cylinder head with flame barrier
that increases gasket life; new meth-
od for tightening the cylinder head
bolts, each bolt having exactly the
same torque for improved sealing;
new cylinder head intake and ex-
haust channel design giving an iden-
tical swirl characteristic for each
cylinder, reducing smoke and in-
creasing fuel efficiency; front end
mounted junction box for all electri-
cal connections and relays, simplify-
ing installation and service, particu-
larly twin installations; new gear-
driven fresh-water circulation pump
for higher efficiency and reduced
noise and vibration; plate type oil
cooler provides more effective cool-
ing of the engine oil; adjustable rear
engine brackets for easier installa-
tion; new adjustable anti-vibration
mounts reduce vibrations transmit-
ted to the hull and thereby reduce
noise and increase comfort.
New technical developments have
made it possible to achieve an ex-
tremely low weight/power ratio
2.2 kg/hp for the TAMD 61A and
2.3 kg/hp for the TAMD 71A with
the output set for light duty opera-
tion. Increased power outputs have
been possible through further devel-
opments of direct injection, turbo-
charging and aftercooling technolo-
gy-
The engines are fitted with oil-
cooled pistons that reduce the
buildup of carbon deposits. In addi-
tion, there is a new type of thermo-
stat and gear-driven fresh-water
pump. These are some of the de-
tailed improvements that contrib-
ute toward high operational reliabil-
ity and long service life.
Air pre-heating means easier
starting in extreme weather condi-
tions and reduced exhaust smoke
during the start-up phase. Further-
more there is a pressure regulator
that allows the heated air from the
turbocharger, at pressures below 0.3
bar, to bypass the aftercooler and
pass directly into the intake mani-
fold. This leads to a cleaner exhaust
at idle speed and low load operation.
The engines are also equipped with
fuel injection pumps fitted with
smoke limiters for reduction of
black exhaust emissions during ac-
celeration.
Simple installation and simple
service are of utmost significance for
overall economy and special empha-
sis has been placed on these aspects
during the design phase of the new
61 and 71 Series. Some examples
reflecting this are the cable harness
from the instrument panel can be
directly coupled to the engine's elec-
trical components through the use
of plug-in connectors; the seawater
pump, oil filter and oil filler are
placed for ease of accessibility at the
front end of the engine.
Engine specifications are easily
adapted for different boat types and
applications thanks to the wide
range of optional equipment such as
heat exchanger or keel cooling sys-
tems, extra alternators, 12V or 24V
electrical systems, extra power take-
offs, bilge and deckwash pumps,
front end mounted oil filter and
adjustable anti-vibration mounts.
The transmission program has
been selected to suit varying boat
types, from heavy displacement
boats to light planing craft. The
program ranges from the MG506 to
the MG509 and also includes the
new MG506A with a 10 down angle
output shaft. A choice of reduction
ratios are available from 1:1 to
4.95:1.

The Spirit, shown above, was converted from a 96-foot aluminum crewboat to a 149-
passenger whale watch/excursion vessel.
Mast er Mar i ne Responds To Change
In The Shi pbui l di ng Mar ket
Wi t h Vessel Conversions
Master Marine, Inc. of Bayou La
Batre, Ala., recently converted a 96-
foot aluminum crewboat to a 149-
passenger whale watch/excursion
vessel for Barnstable Whale Watch
Tours Inc., Barnstable, Mass.
The vessel, named Spirit, was
converted in just under eight weeks.
Work consisted of installation of
three main engines and one genera-
tor, with special spiral design Cowl
mufflers from Canada, chosen be-
cause of their compact size and ease
of installation in the engine room.
Conversion work entailed fabrica-
tion of a 35-foot extended deck-
house with two bathrooms in the
stern, full service snack bar, cush-
ioned benches and tables. Interior
finishing incorporated the use of
fiberglass reinforced plastic pan-
eling on the walls, which is very dur-
able and will not rot and fade like
wood paneling. Four sliding doors
make way for easy passenger access.
Handrails with safety screens on the
main deck and the topdeck make it
safe for families to view the beauty
of the ocean. A bow pulpit was con-
structed for sighting of marine life.
Additional work consisted of the
hookup of all piping systems and
electrical lighting throughout, in-
stallation of a public address sys-
tem, and sandblasting and the
painting of the vessel.
Master Marine recently extended
the University of Texas's research
vessel Longhorn with a 20-foot mid-
body section. This addition pro-
vided a new equipment room, in-
creased the living accommodations,
lengthened two laboratories and al-
lowed the building of a spacious new
pilothouse complete with crew quar-
ters.
Included in the work was the con-
struction of two new bottom tanks
for fresh water and the installation
of a central A.C. unit servicing three
separate levels simultaneously.
With the move of the main deck
crane to the fo'c'sle deck, a new
working area along with space for
two deck boats was accomplished.
Finally, to insure safety and im-
prove working conditions, the gen-
erators were mounted on isolators
with exhaust and hydraulic equip-
ment, all sound engineered.
Exhaust and engine noise was a
major concern on the Longhorn. To
solve this problem Maxim M31 ex-
haust silencers with MSA1 spark
arresti ng muffl ers from Riley
Beaird were installed to the main
engines and generators exhaust sys-
tem. In the engine room, Soundown
2 LB lead and foam sound absorp-
tion was installed. Other items in-
cluded aluminum framed windows
from Wynne Enterprises, Red Fox
MSD, and Village Marine fresh
water maker. Air conditioning units
are Lennox Evaporators with heat
coils.
The University vessel can now
provide extended trips for research
teams numbering 14. With complete
navigation facilities and experi-
enced crew, the Longhorn is ready
for oceanographic research.
The Comanche, a 16-year-old
shrimp trawler was converted to a
Hondurian lobster vessel. The work
entailed installation of a plate freez-
er system in the fishhold, and new
hydraulics. A pot hauler and cap-
stan were added and the rigging was
changed to accommodate lobster
pots. There was miscellaneous steel
renewal throughout and the pilot-
house and galley were refurbished.
Other work recently completed
were two Coast Guard contracts for
Newpor t News Yar d Lays Keel
For Carri er ' Geor ge Washi ngt on'
The recent keel laying for the
George Washington (CVN-73),
which will be the Navy's sixth Nim-
itz Class nuclear-powered aircraft
carrier, marked two firsts in New-
port News Shipbuilding's 100-year
history.
The placement of the Washing-
ton's 730-ton keel section in Ship-
way #12 represents the first time
two aircraft carriers will be assem-
bled simultaneously in a single ship-
way. Ship way #12 is the largest of
its kind in the Western Hemisphere.
The Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) is
currently under construction in the
inboard section and is scheduled for
delivery to the Navy in 1990.
NNS vice president John Gra-
ham said that prior to the launch-
ing of the Lincoln, the partially
completed Washington will be wa-
tertight and able to be floated out of
the outboard end of the shipway.
After the Lincoln is floated out of
the shipway, the Washington will be
brought back into the shipway for
completion, and repositioned on the
same keel blocks that supported the
Lincoln. This procedure will mark
another first for us, he said.
The Washington's keel laying
represents a continuation of the
modular construction techniques
Newport News uses to build aircraft
carriers. "We've learned many les-
sons from building the Theodore
Roosevelt," Mr. Graham said,
"and we will continue to improve on
efficiencies as we progress on both
the Lincoln and the Washington."
Extensive use of computer-aided
design and manufacturing (CAD/
CAM) are credited for building cur-
rent aircraft carriers faster than
previous carriers. Modular con-
struction techniques and the greater
super lift capability of the ship-
yard's 900-ton-capacity gantry
crane that spans the shipway, are
also responsible for the anticipated
earlier deliveries.
Nimitz Class carriers are 1,092
feet long and carry a 6,000-man
crew and about 100 aircraft. They
have a 4Vz -acre flight deck and are
approximately 24 stories high from
keel to mast top. Newport News
Shipbuilding constructed all three
of the Nimitz Class carriers current-
ly in the Fleet. A fourth ship of the
class, the Theodore Roosevelt
(CVN-71), is scheduled for delivery
to the Navy later this year.

this year, with firms from Canada,
Denmark, France, Germany, Great
Britain, Iceland, Ireland, Norway,
Portugal, and Sweden represented.
While there will be much to learn
about the latest developments in
the fishing industry by viewing the
many exhibits, additional informa-
tion on activities that affect a fisher-
man's livelihood will be offered
through the Fish Expo Seminar
Program.
Seminar Agenda
Wednesday, October 15
Tracking the Catch: The Wo-
men's Fisheries Network will pres-
ent a program stressing the impor-
tance of quality control in handling
the catch as it moves from the boat
through the processing and market-
ing channels to the consumer.
Highliner Awards: National
Fi sherman will announce the
winners of its annual Highliner
Awards, which go to three outstand-
ing East Coast fishermen. This year,
an additional award will recognize
the efforts of an East Coast profes-
sor as well.
Insurance Update: Panelists
will discuss what is being done to
ease the insurance bite, as well as
alternatives to obtaining coverage.
The Trouble with Gurry: Pro-
fessors have yet to permanently
solve the problem of how to dispose
of New England's gurry. Speakers
will discuss the problem and possi-
ble solutions.
Thursday, October 16
Trawl i ng Tips: Massachusetts
Institute of Technology trawl course
director Cliff Goudey will give
some tips for improving the per-
formance of drag gear.
Display Auction: Can display
seafood auctions such as the one in
Portland, Maine, help fishermen in-
crease their profits? A fisherman
and a buyer will discuss the pros
and cons.
Fighting for the Waterfront:
A few of the people who have fought
to protect the working waterfront
from developers will share their
strategies.
Friday, October 17
Lobst er Gauge: Will the mini-
mum legal size of lobsters be in-
creased, as a Maine law seeks to do,
or will the proposal be shot down by
other states? Panelists will try to
pin down the future of the gauge.
Changes in Fi shery Manage-
ment: Fundamental changes in the
way we manage fisheries are neces-
sary, according to many fishermen
and managers alike. Speakers will
examine the changes that are likely
over both short and long terms.
Troubl eshoot i ng Di esel s: Ex-
perts will offer some tips for pre-
venting and repairing some of the
diesel engine problems that could
mean being towed back to port.
Saturday, October 18
Worki ng Skiffs: Marine spe-
cialists Sherri l l Smi th and Tim
Vi sel will discuss drags, dredges,
and trawl gear for skiffs.
The exhibit hall will be open from
10:00 am to 6:00 pm daily, with the
seminars beginning at 10:30 am each
day. At the first day's closing on
October 15, the Fish Expo Recep-
tion will get under way in the Bay-
side Exposition Center Ballroom,
ending at 8:00 pm. Tickets to the
two-hour reception are limited and
should be ordered in advance, at $20
each.
I t is also a good idea for Fish Expo
visitors to register for the show in
advance, eliminating a wait in line
and the $5 registration fee that is
charged at the door. For pre-regis-
tration forms and reception tickets,
contact National Fisherman Expo-
sitions at (207) 772-3005.
Bayside Exposition Center should
prove advantageous to exhibitors
and visitors alike, especially those
driving to the show from other parts
of New England. The center is just
off the Southeast Expressway south
of downtown Boston, and has park-
ing facilities for 2,000 cars. For
those who will be staying in Boston
but not driving to the show, shuttle
buses will be making regular daily
runs to the Bayside Center from
major hotels in the city.

TAKE YOU
The best way
to deal with bad
weather at sea is to
avoid it. And Alden's
new Marinefax" TR I
gives you the information you need
to plan your best and safest course.
A Weal t h Of Inf ormat i on
With your Marinefax TR I, you
can receive a wide variety of charts,
available free from over 50 govern-
ment transmitters worldwide.
Charts not just on weather, but on
sea conditions as well. Surface an-
alyses and prognoses let you avoid
storms or take advantage of favor-
able winds. Gulf Stream and other
oceanographic charts, as well as
wave height and direction charts,
show you the speediest and most
comfortable course.
Beyond comfort and safety,
weather charts can help plan
a course to minimize fuel con-
sumption. And fishermen will
especially appreciate sea tempera-
ture information to show the most
likely hot spots.
Aut omat i c Recept i on
Marinefax TR I is a new genera-
tion of weather chart recorder from
Alden. It features a unique micro-
processor that lets you program the
recorder to automatically receive
the exact charts you want. You tell
the recorder when to come on,
what frequency to receive, when to
change frequency, and when to go
off. You get your maps, whether
you're onboard or ashore.
Programming is easy, with the
LCD display leading you through
the steps. Yet despite this sophisti-
cation, Marinefax TR I is the
smallest weather chart recorder on
the market.
Improved Frequency Sel ect i on
Recall any transmitter frequency
you like just by hitting two buttons.
Or store up to ten stations of your
own choice for one-button recall.
And the TR I has a new, improved
radio. Fine tuning is incredibly sim-
ple: just push the button for precise,
0.1 kHz changes until you optimize
reception. The frequency then locks
in, eliminating the "drift" common
to many other radio receivers.
New Paper
Our new Alfax thermal paper is
dry for easy storage, and produces
bright, high-
resolution maps.
Thermal printing is
exceptionally quiet,
and provides for
simple and inexpensive operation.
Al den Rel i abi l i t y
For over 40 years Alden has
specialized in weather products,
serving not only mariners, but pro-
fessional meteorologists as well. Our
one-year warranty is followed by a
unique, fixed-price service plan, no
matter how old your Marinefax is.
Before you have to face another
storm at sea, find out more about
Marinefax. Contact your local dealer,
or contact Alden Electronics, 130
Washington Street, Westborough,
MA 01581 (617) 366-8851.

On The Wisconsin (BB 64)
Avondale Shipyards Division of
New Orleans, under subcontract
from Ingalls Shipbuilding Division,
will perform the major work that is
required in the drydocking of the
battleship Wisconsin (BB 64), in-
cluding the pumping out, gas freez-
ing, repairing, and all of the coating
of the ship's fuel and water tanks,
replacement of propellers, inspec-
tion and repair of the shafts and
rudders, and the inspection and re-
pair of the sea chests and sea valves.
In addition, the entire exterior of
the ship's hull will be recoated.
The Wisconsin will be docked in
Avondale's 81,000-ton floating dry-
dock using the techniques that were
previously used to dock the battle-
ship Iowa, which safeguard the ves-
sel from fire and other dangers
involved in this type of work.
At its peak, the work will provide
employment for about 1,150 work-
ers. When Avondale completes its
work at the end of this year, the
Wisconsin will then be towed to
Ingalls in Pascagoula, Miss., for the
remainder of its reactivation work.
Avondale's reactivation work
adds to its backlog of six T-AO 187
Class Fleet Oilers and five LSD-41
Class Landing Ship Docks.

New MA N B&W Diesel Engi ne Extends
Two-St roke Out put To Lower Range
Literature Available
The latest addition to MAN
B&W Diesel's low-speed engine pro-
gram, the mini-bore S26MC, ex-
tends the superior economic and
technical merits of the two-stroke
crosshead design to a ship's propul-
sion segment that, traditionally, has
not been dominated by the two-
stroke engines.
With a bore of 260 mm and stroke
of 980 mm, the new model in the
ultra-long-stroke S-MC Series will
offer outputs of 950 to 3,970 bhp
from 4- to 8-cylinder in-line units
capable of burning poor quality
heavy fuel having a viscosity of up
to 700 cSt at 50 C.
During the design stage, special
attention was paid to all details,
dimensions, and weight. This has
resulted in an extremely compact
installation offering a highly attrac-
tive, easy to maintain alternative to
traditional four-stroke engine pro-
pulsion plants.
Like other models in the MC pro-

gram, the S26MC will be available
in power-optimized MC or fuel-
optimized MCE versions with exact-
ly the same dimensions. The S26MC
will deliver an output per cylinder
up to 495 bhp at 250 rpm on a mean
effective pressure of 16.8 bar. The
S26MCE has a rating of up to 395
bhp per cylinder at the same speed,
but on a mep of 13.4 bar.
The large layout area offers flexi-
bility with ratings down to 237 bhp
per cylinder at 188 rpm. Specific
fuel consumption at maximum con-
tinuous rating ranges from 124 to
126 grams per bhp hour for the
MCE versions and 126 to 130 g/
bhph for the MC version, with mini-
mum part-load returns of 123-125 g/
bhph and 125-129 g/bhph, respec-
tively.
The S26MC is introduced as a
logical development of MAN B&W
Diesel's successful L35MC Series,
until now the smallest-bore model
of its kind in the low-speed, uniflow-
scavenged, two-stroke engine sector.
The 350-mm bore design made a
swift and enduring impact from its
introduction in 1981, winning nu-
merous references within the pro-
pulsion market traditionally con-
fined to geared medium, four-stroke
engines and J apanese low-speed,
trunk piston machinery.
Excellent service experience is re-
ported from L35MC installations in
small general cargo ships, tankers,
reefers, chemical carriers, colliers,
feeder containerships, and large
trawlers. Operational benefits at-
tracted the specification of a twin
9-cylinder L35MC propulsion plant
for the Moroccan car/passenger fer-
ry Marrakech recently delivered by
Alsthom's St. Nazaire yard, and 7-
cylinder engines for small LPG car-
riers being built in West Germany
for Brazilian owners.
The S26MC aims to strengthen
MAN B&W Diesel's hold on this
important sector of the internation-
al market and allow operators of
medium and small ship types
oceangoing, coastal, and inlandto
exploit the commercial and techni-
cal benefits of the low-speed cross-
head engine.
Full support from design engi-
neers with vast experience in de-
signing engine room layouts and
complete propulsion systems is
available to operators and shipyards
from the MAN B&W Diesel organi-
zation, and may assist in layouts,
specifying and/or supplying related
equipment packages, and smooth-
ing installation procedures. The
package can be tailored to the indi-
vidual project and embrace pump-
ing, cooling, and fuel treatment
modules, propellers, shafting stern
tubes, alarm systems, and instru-
mentation. Electrical power may be
supplied via a power takeoff for a
standard engine-driven generator.
As an example of compactness,
the 4-cylinder model will have an
overall length of just over 3 meters,
a height from the crankshaft center
line of 4 meters, a minimum over-
haul height requirement of only 4.4
meters, and a dry weight of 27
tons.
Features that make the S26MC
an attractive alternative are: low fig-
S26MC CROSS SECTION
ures for specific fuel oil consump-
tion; low figures for specific lube oil
consumption; secure operation on
heavy fuel oil; high reliability; low
maintenance costs; and low noise
level. Tests on a prototype 6S26MC
engine are scheduled to start in
Copenhagen in October this year.
Said to be the smallest two-stroke
uniflow diesel engine of its kind, the
S26MC is based on more than 50
years of experience in uniflow de-
sign, and is backed by a worldwide
service organization.
The new 260-mm-bore engine
shares the basic design philosophy
of other models in MAN B&W Die-
sel's market-leading MC Series,
which now embraces eight bore sizes
up to 900 mm. The overall range can
now meet single engine output ap-
plications from 950 to 64,320 bhp.

engine series,
Ulstein Introduces New
High-Lift Type Rudder
Ulstein in Norway recently un-
veiled a new high-lift rudder that
combines the best features of vari-
ous known rudder types and pro-
vides higher lift at large rudder
angles compared with conventional
flap type rudders. The new rudder is
said to provide an exceptionally
good effect for vessels that require
high rudder forces at low speeds
such as tugboats, trawlers, anchor-
handling vessels, etc.
An important advantage com-
pared with other high-lift rudders is
that the Ulstein unit requires only
the conventional 2 by 45-degree
steering gear. The rudder gives im-
proved rudder effect with low ener-
gy losses, in particular during trawl-
ing and at low speeds. At the same
time, the transverse forces are re-
duced for small rudder angles,
thereby reducing the chasing at
cruising speeds.
The new Ulstein high-lift rudder
is being marketed by Ulstein Trad-
ing Ltd. A/S, with sales offices and
agents worldwide. The Norwegian
firm is represented in the U.S. by
Ulstein Inc. of Kenner, La., and in
October, 1986
Canada by Ulstein Maritime Ltd. of
Burnaby, B.C.
With this new high-lift rudder
added to its product line, Ulstein is
in the position to provide all the
major equipment for the propulsion
and maneuvering of a wide range of
vessels.

new high-lift rudder,

Marinette Marine Awarded
$51.8-Million Navy Contract
To Build Another MCM
Marinette Marine Corporation of
Marinette, Wise., has been awarded
a $51.8-million contract by the Nav-
al Sea Systems Command for con-
struction of one additional mine
countermeasures ship, the MCM-7.
Marinette previously was awarded
Navy contracts totaling $88 million
for construction of two other ships
of this class, the Defender (MCM-2)
and the Champion (MCM-4). Both
of these vessels are currently well
advanced in their construction, with
the Defender scheduled for delivery
in 1987 and the Champion in 1988.
The MCM-7 is scheduled for the fall
of 1989 delivery.
This Avenger Class is the first
new mine countermeasures ship de-
veloped by the Navy in nearly 30
years. It represents one of the most
sophisticated and capable ships of
its type ever built in the world. The
ability of the MCM ships to hunt,
neutralize, and sweep mines in U.S.
waters and overseas areas, including
all potential sea lane choke points,
will provide U.S. naval forces with a
formidable defensive platform.
The MCM ship is 224 feet long
with a beam of 39 feet, and displaces
approximately 1,200 long tons. The
ship is constructed entirely of wood.
This wood structure is a combina-
tion of laminated oak framing,
Douglas fir planking, and Douglas

ASEA, Inc. of White Plains, N.Y.,
markets it Optitrim system that is
designed to help plan cargo loading,
fuel oil and freshwater bunkering,
and the correct positioning of bal-
last in order to obtain maximum
fuel savings. The company reports
that this system will increase oper-
ating efficiency substantially, re-
duce costs, and pay for itself in less
than a year.
The Optitrim indicates the most
efficient mode of operation at every
speed and load condition, showing
basic optimum and actual figures. It
can calculate cargo in each hold in
percent, volume, or weight. The unit
provides optimum trim calculations
when the estimated average speed is
used as input. It then calculates the
optimum trim for the mean draft
and presents the optimum fuel sav-
ings in tons per day when the ship is
retrimmed to its optimum.
The operator can shift cargo from
one hold to another and immediate-
ly read off the differences in fuel
savings by doing so. Every factor
that affects the trim is taken into
consideration.
BEEBE
Beebe I nternational, Inc. of Seat-
tle recently introduced three new
capacities to its Force-5Series of
air winches that were originally in-
troduced in 1985. The new V2-, 1-,
and 10-ton winches, along with the
original FA2, 5, and 7, now bring a
full range of capacities to the indus-
try.
Said to be the only all-steel win-
ches suitable for worldwide use in
temperatures as low as -30 C with-
out modification, these new Beebe
units are rated full drum with a 5:1
safety factor that provides assur-
ance of continuous duty and power
regardless of layer.
The Force-5 Series air winches
are capable of precise load spotting
through an optional oil bath disc
brake that lasts virtually the life of
Ci r cl e 14on Reader Ser vi ce Car d
A line of lightweight marine
cranes said to offer heavier lift ca-
pacity, increased reliability, reduced
maintenance, greater safety, longer
component life, and smoother oper-
ation is available from Blue Streak
I ndustries of Pearlington, Miss.
These pedestal-mounted, lattice-
boom cranes are designed for use on
offshore rigs and platforms, work-
boats, and ships. The series includes
units with lift capacities from 25 to
100 tons.
The improved capabilities are at-
tributed to the use of computer-
aided design, a closed-loop hydrau-
lic system, and the use of the high-
est quality components and equip-
ment. Closed-loop systems employ a
continuous hydraulic loop from
pump to motor to pump, which pro-
vides precise control similar to that
provided by diesel-electric systems.
Prior to now, continuous-loop hy-
draulic systems were not in general
use on cranes because of higher ini-
tial costs and purported greater
maintenance expense. Blue Streak's
experience in building and operat-
ing a large fleet of self-elevating lift-
boats utilizing both open- and
closed-loop systems indicated that
the latter could improve perform-
ance while reducing overall mainte-
nance costs. The company's engi-
neers overcame the higher costs by
developing an improved oil filtra-
tion system that effectively removes
contaminates from the lines, thus
reducing maintenance and lost reve-
nue due to vessel downtime.
After the closed-loop system had
proven itself on self-elevating rigs
weighing up to 325 tons, it was
adapted for use on Blue Streak's
latest cranes. The first production
model, a 75-ton-capacity crane, has
been working flawlessly on the Gulf
Island V, one of the world's largest
liftboats, since early last year.
While perfecting the closed-loop
system, Blue Streak's engineers ex-
tended the service life of their
cranes by using components not
normally found on cranes of this
type. Superior quality components
such as Hagglunds high-torque, low-
speed motors, Rexroth pumps, and
EEM controls are used. All units are
designed and built for the corrosive
offshore environment. They are pro-
tected from salt water by the use of
galvenized metals, waterproof fit-
tings, and marine coatings.
Blue Streak provides 24-hour ser-
vice by the same technicians who
build the cranes.
BRADEN
Braden Cargo Gearmatic, winch
divisions of PACCAR, a major
supplier of performance-proven
winches to the offshore and marine
crane industry, have introduced two
winches in their PD (Power Drum)
series of hydraulic planetary winches.
The PD7A and PD12C (7,500 and
12,000 pounds rated capacity, re-
spectively) feature highly efficient,
computer-aided designed gear sets
supported on anti-friction bearings
that run in oil to minimize frictional
losses and reduce downtime. Load
control, when lowering, is main-
tained by the patented Braden
brake valve known for its smooth
performance and easy adaption to
almost any hydraulic system. This
brake valve is backed up by an
i nternal , automati c mul ti -di sc
spring applied/hydraulically re-
leased safety brake. An over-run-
ning brake clutch permits free rota-
tion through the brake while hoist-
ing, but immediately locks when the
hoisting operation is complete. The
load is held firm even if the engine
dies or a hydraulic line breaks.
Maximized commonality of parts
in the PD Series winches, along with
the PR Series swing drives, results
in lower parts inventories to support
marine crane service.
JERED BROWN
J ered Brown Brothers is a major
supplier of deck machinery and oth-
er marine equipment worldwide.
Products include anchor windlasses
and capstans, non-magnetic mine-
sweeper deck machinery, cranes,
steering gears, elevator systems,
main thrust bearings, and line shaft
bearings. J ered equipment is speci-
fied on FFG 7, CG 47, LSD 41, LHD
1, MCM 1, T-AO 187, T-5, and CVN
Class vessels and many other com-
mercial ships.
In addition to providing equip-
ment on new ship construction,
J ered provides spare parts and
maintenance on deck machinery in
service. J ered has engineering draw-
ings and parts for equipment manu-
factured by American Engineering.
C.H. Wheeler, Baldwin-Lima-Ham-
ilton, and J ered Industries.
CATERPILLAR
A new container-handler lift
truck with a maximum capacity of
79,000 pounds at 48-inch load cen-
ter has just been announced by Ca-
terpillar Industrial Inc. of Mentor,
Ohio, as subsidiary of Caterpillar
Inc.
Like the Cat V800 and V925 con-
tainer handlers, the new V900CH
handles 20 to 40-foot boxes 8 to 9 Vi
feet high, and stacks them up to
four high. Like other Cat container
handlers, the V900 incorporates
components proven durable in
Caterpillar earthmoving and mining
equipment.
The V900CH is powered by the
Caterpillar 3208T diesel, a 208-bhp
turbocharged engine that has prov-
en itself reliable in more than
300,000 applications worldwide. Its
low-friction design provides eco-
nomical fuel consumption, and its
high torque rise provides power for
quick acceleration and hydraulics.
Power train components used in
their Cat equipment include the
planetary power shift transmission
and oil-cooled disc brakes. The
four-speed forward and reverse
transmission meets the varying load
and travel conditions required in
handling containers and other
heavy, wide loads.
Oil-cooled disc brakes provide
significantly more braking surface
than standard show-type or dry cal-
iper disc brakes. The brakes re-
spond quickly and operate coolly.
Another Caterpillar exclusive is
the integral steer axle/counter-
weight. The entire rear section of
the lift truck oscillates about the
main frame, providing a low rear
profile, good stability, high visibili-
ty, and a smooth ride.
The spacious cab features pilot-
operated hydraulic controls for easy
operation and precise control. The
operator has optimum all-around
visibility for maximum production.
The expandable container-han-
dler spreader is backed by Caterpil-
lar's extensive worldwide parts and
service support. Fifteen Cat lift
truck parts distribution centers and
more than 340 dealer locations in
the U.S. and Canada provide sup-
port.
CLYDE
A division of AMCA Internation-
al of Milwaukee, Clyde manufac-
tures equipment for handling heavy
components, mooring and vessel po-
sitioning systems, and bulk-han-
dling stevedoring cranes.
A new Clyde product is an im-
proved linear winch available with
intermittent or continuous motion.
These hydraul i cal l y operated
winches maintain a constant line
pull and are very compact. Controls
may be fully automated (program-
mable) or manual. They can accom-
modate wire rope sizes from 1 to 12
inches.
Offshore applications include:
large mooring systems where the
linear winch must withstand the
breaking strength of the wire rope;
pipe pulling and J tube completion;
precision lowering of large loads
such as drilling templates, especial-
ly at great depths where cranes can-
not reach; permanent mooring in-
stallations using 8- to 12-inch wire
rope; offshore construction jobs; and
other sites where large, rigid mod-
ules must be repositioned, rotated,
or moved without being lifted. Oth-
er applications include pre-tension-
ing of anchors and documentation
of the operation with the help of
strip recorders.
In underwater pipe pulling, a
French company positioned a Clyde
linear winch under water where it
pulled both a trenching plow and
the pipe, following a pre-laid cable
offshore, to the beach. This opera-
tion eliminated the need for a lay
barge, cutting costs greatly.

(continued)
Gulf Coast project will utilize Clyde
linear winch systems to facilitate
the erection of large offshore jack-
ets. Previously, conventional cranes
were used to accomplish the roll-ups
and joining of jacking components.
The linear winches are said to pro-
vide a more economical method
with precise control of all opera-
tions.
In Australia, Clyde linear winches
will soon be used to guy an offshore
structure. The winches will pull on
5-inch cable and generate a line pull
of 1,700,000 pounds.
Clyde recently supplied a new
concept, 5,000-ton-capacity shear-
leg derreck that can be skid-
mounted onto a barge and self-
erects/de-erects. These features are
said to make it ideal for shallow
water operation and movement un-
der bridges. It is a very economical
lifting tool, and existing non-uti-
lized barges can be employed.
For coal and grain handling,
Clyde has cranes that are outfitted
with high-speed hydraulic swing
and a large diesel power package to
produce extremely quick cycle times
(approximately 50 seconds). The
bucket gross loads vary from 40,000
to 120,000 pounds. They can be han-
dled at a radius capable of reaching
the center of a 125,000-dwt collier.
This reach capability is assisted by
the unit's raised boom heel (in some
cases more than 23 feet above the
rotating deck), which allows clear-
ance over the ship's coaming. Oper-
ators are further assisted by the
high elevation of the operator's cab,
allowing good visibility of both
barge and ship's hold. Though
barge-mounted, these cranes have
been sold as stati onary (tub
mounted) or traveling (gantry
mounted) units.
CONMACO
Amcon air-controlled hoists are
an exclusive with Conmaco, Inc. of
Kansas City, Kan. The flagship of
the line is the Amcon 6250, which
handles up to 12,000 feet of 3-inch
wire rope.
Another member of the 7-hoist
Amcon lineup is the Amcon 150.
This versatile hoist will handle wire
rope up to 1-inch and delivers up to
35,000 pounds of line pull. It has
proved itself to be well-suited for
anchor-handling applications on
small vessels and supply boats, or
for mooring small barges on inland
waterways.
Conmaco also has introduced a
line of deck-mounted fairleaders,
each with the rugged construction to
withstand the breaking strength of
indicated wire rope. Bearings in the
barrel and sheaves are engineered
for long life and dependability, even
under rapid or severe changes of
lead.
New to the Amcon line of winches
is the 20C hydraulic winch with a
line pull of up to 40,000 pounds (1-
inch wire rope) and spooling capac-
ity of 1,434 feet. An important fea-
ture of this winch is that each drum
is fitted with a friction clutch allow-
ing the drums to "free wheel" inde-
pendently.
In addition to a full line of air-
controlled winches, fairleads, deck
guide sheaves, and chain handling
equipment, Conmaco also offers
rental, sales, and service on hydrau-
lic continuous pull machines with
CPL as high as 1.5 million pounds.
CROSBY GROUP
A 180-page, full-color catalog is
available from The Crosby Group, a
Division of Amhoist, which is com-
prised of Laughlin, Lebus,
McKissick, National, and Western.
The companies manufacture every
conceivable kind of fitting and ac-
cessory for deck machinery, cargo
handling and other applications, in-
cluding forged fittings, hooks,
blocks, sheaves, pulleys, load bind-
ers, chain, etc. The catalog describes
all of the products of all divisions in
full detail with photos, detailed
drawings, all measurements, and
full specification charts.
McKissick products, a division of
the Crosby Group in Tulsa, Okla.,
now has new roll forged sheaves
available in the most complete
range of sizes from 12 through 72
inches. The sheaves are an ideal
choice for original equipment in
self-unloading systems and as re-
placements.
McKissick sheaves are forged
from controlled quality 1035 carbon
steel which provides excellent weld-
ing and flame hardening character-
istics. All incoming steel is tested by
chemical and spectrographic meth-
ods to insure consistently high qual-
ity.
Steel sheaves have excellent flexi-
bility when choosing bearings and
also provide better cold weather
properties than nylon sheaves.
Crosby links and rings are manu-
factured in a complete line of sizes
and types for almost any applica-
tion, with working load limits from
1,600 to 232,500 pounds.
Lebus products include lever and
ratchet type load binders, grab
hooks and tail chains, snatch blocks,
and hook latch kits. McKissick spe-
cializes in custom designed blocks to
any specification, oil field blocks,
crane and hook blocks, overhaul
balls, swivel hooks, and snatch
blocks, as well as many other prod-
ucts. Western manufactures sheaves
and sleeves, wood and steel blocks,
and cargo blocks and fittings, just
part of its extensive product line.
National's product line includes
steel swaging sleeves, dupl ex
sleeves, swage buttons and furrules,
as well as swaging presses in capaci-
ties from 500 to 3,000 tons.
EMMI-PUSNES
Pusnes was founded in 1875 as a
shipyard and started deck machin-
ery production in 1890.
Today, Pusnes is one of the few
companies in the world concentrat-
ing on the development and manu-
facture of all types of deck machin-
ery for mooring systems used on a
broad range of floating equipment.
When you board a 540,000-dwt
ULCC you will find Pusnes steam
deck machinery. Looking closer at
the windlass on any of these large
tankers you will notice up to 1,000-
hp disc brakes used to drop the
anchors under finger tip control.
Visit a semisubmersible on a drilling
station and you will find Pusnes
mooring systems for chain, chain-
wire combo, or all-wire and moored
in depths up to 3,500 feet. Systems
for greater depths and hostile envi-
ronments are under development
today.
Pusnes also manufactures moor-
ing equipment for smaller coastal
ships, barges, tugboats, off-shore
supply boats, pipe-laying barges,
and similar vessels.
Minimum crew and safety are
Pusnes trademarks. The unique
roto-bollard for mooring rope han-
dling is a typical innovation.
Mooring systems for chain, cable,
and rope employ steam, electric, or
hydraulic drives. The equipment
can be local or remotely controlled
and, when necessary, the mooring
forces constantly monitored.
Pusnes is part of "SUBTECH"
Norway, a firm developing complete
diving systems which employ diving
bells, underwater vehicles, bell
winch systems, divers gas recovery
systems, external life support sys-
tems, and the "Hyperbaric" satu-
rated divers lifeboat. Concern for
offshore personnel resulted in the
development of "Pudes," the con-
trolled extendable protected gang-
way for dry evacuation.
Pusnes has a joint venture compa-
ny in J apan, Nippon-Pusnes, and
both are represented in the U.S. by
EMMI Corporation of Flemington,
N.J .
FMC/ LINK BELT
A 22-page full-color guide de-
scribing Link-Belt's crane and ex-
cavator line is being offered by FMC
of Bannockburn, 111.
The guide discusses FMC's crane
operations, engineering and re-
search programs, and the manufac-
turing and testing programs for
structures and components. Within
each of eight categories of Link-Belt
cranes, such as pedestal mounted
hydraulic offshore cranes, is a model
number and specifications. The
specifications include capacity
stated in tons and metric tons; ca-
pacity at 50-foot radius; maximum
crane boom; main drum line pull/
line speed for three speeds; and
overall length, width, and working
weight.
FMC has added a 33-ton (29.93
mt) capacity API-65 to its Seahawk
series of Link-Belt hydraulic off-
shore cranes. The lightweight
25,000-pound API-65 is specially
designed to perform all the material,
equipment, and personnel lifting re-
quired on offshore oil production
platforms and drilling rigs, and
meets API-2C (1982) specifications.
The API-65 features pin-con-
nected components that permit fast
modular erection and easy mainte-
nance. The heaviest component
weighs just 7,200 pounds. The com-
pact design features a 7-foot 7-inch
tailswing with onboard engine and
cab, and an overall height of 14 feet
7 inches reducible to 8 feet.
A maximum API rating of 34,200
pounds is achieved with a 50-foot
boom at 30-degree radius, best in its
class. Superior load handling speed

FRITZ CULVER
Fritz Culver, Inc. of Covington,
La., manufactures a wide variety of
deck machinery serving virtually
every aspect of the marine market.
Established in 1979, the company
enjoyed immediate success in the
Gulf Coast area for designing and
produci ng rugged, dependabl e
equipment.
Typical products include anchor
wi ndl asses, capstans, tugger
winches, stern rollers, cable/chain
stops, cable reels, and anchor-han-
dling and towing winches. All equip-
ment, except the low-pressure, an-
chor-handling/towing winches are
completely designed in-house. Cul-
ver is the U.S. licensee of A/S Hy-
draulik Brattvaag, which has a com-
plete line of low-pressure deck ma-
chinery for cargo ships, fishing ves-
sels, and offshore structures.
Culver has introduced an up-
graded deck machinery line to meet
the requirements of larger vessels
being built to service and handle the
deepwater drilling rigs. Included in
this line are stern rollers, anchor
windlasses, hydraulic tuggers, cap-
stans, tow pins, cable/chain stops,
and cable reels. For the most part,
the basic design was not changed
but the size of the components in-
creased to facilitate handling of
larger size wire and chain and the
loads imposed by them.
A specialty product that is typical
of the Culver line is the Remotely
Operated Vehicle (ROV) winch
used by the diving companies. I t is a
completely self-contained system
for deploying and retrieving the un-
manned submarines used for in-
spection, maintenance and con-
struction of underwater compo-
nents. To date, Culver has delivered
five "one-of-a-kind" units to the
diving industry.
GEARMATIC
With consolidation completed in
1985, Braden Cargo Gearmatic
winch divisions of PACCAR contin-
ue to provide the marine industry
with state-of-the-art, high-efficien-
cy, hydraulic planetary winches.
The Gearmatic Model GH7 is an
example of the new family of tested,
proven, compact winches available
as equal speed (pays in and hauls
out at the same speed) and high-
speed reverse (automatically pays
out at three times the haul-in speed)
models. Features such as the multi-
ple-disc brake and the entire gear
train supported by anti-friction
bearings running in oil, are said to
make this winch an excellent choice
for all types of marine applications.
Other Gearmatic products for the
marine industry include the 30 and
40 Series of planetary winches that
offer a wide selection of cable drum
configurations, gear ratios, and hy-
draulic motor sizes that adapt these
winches to a wide range of applica-
tions.
Gearmatic hydraulic planetary
winches are available with bare
drum line pulls up to 44,000 pounds
and line speeds up to 520 feet per
minute. Ease of operation and
maintenance will continue to be
trademarks of Gearmatic, now with
more than 40 years of quality winch
manufacturing experience.
HAGGLUNDS
AB Hagglund & Soner of Orn-
skoldsvik, Sweden, the world's big-
gest manufacturer of deck cranes,
has together with its licensees deliv-
ered more than 5,000 cranes during
the past 25 years. This market lead-
ership was enhanced recently with
the introduction of new cargo-han-
dling aids that offer even better pro-
ductivity.
Development of Hagglunds deck
cranes has proceeded steadily from
the small three-tonners first deliv-
ered in the early 1960s to today's
advanced 50-ton cranes with out-
reach sufficient for the biggest
ships, and automated cargo-han-
dling aids. However, the accent is
not solely on increased capacity.
The range of the slimline L Type
introduced about two years ago was
recently extended to encompass fast
single-wire units for SWLs down to
eight tons.
The range offered by Hagglunds
is the most extensive on the market,
extending from eight to 50 tons
SWL. Types for cargo handling are
now as follows:
L-l cranes, 8-30 tons, for very fast
cargo handling (line speed in excess
of 164 feet per minute), particularly
suitable for smaller types of ves-
sels.
L-2 cranes, 36-40 tons, specially
suitable for container handling. Has
compact installed dimensions for
maximum container capacity on-
board, yet all machinery is fully
enclosed and access is internal.
G-2 cranes, 25-50 tons, are the
world's most popular deck cranes,
used for both bulk and unit car-
goes.
K-4 cranes, SWL 25 tons, are bulk
cargo cranes for use with grabs.
Reinforced, high-output units are
built for 24-hour operation.
Twin cranesTypes L-l, L-2,
and G-2 can be installed in pairs for
optional operation as a single crane
with doubled capacity.
Hagglunds' technology is most
appreciated where conditions are
most severe. The cranes have been
widely adopted for use in Arctic
environments, a field in which the
company has gained wide experi-
ence, with units now working in
temperatures as low as 58 F.
Dynamic load situations encoun-
tered in cargo handling in the open
sea represent another area in which
Hagglunds has special expertise.
The development of a range of off-
shore cranes was a natural applica-
tion of this experience.
Hagglunds Drives Division offers
advanced concepts in hydraulic
drive systems for deck machinery in
the marine and offshore industries.
Besides winch systems of all types,
Hagglunds hydraulic motors of the
low-speed, high-torque type are em-
ployed in platform jacking systems,
pipelaying equipment, and vessel
propulsion systems.
HARNISCHFEGER
The Construction Equipment Di-
vision of the Harnischfeger Corpo-
ration in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, offers
the Model 2080 planetary winch,
with unique CAD/CAM optimized-
design features. This winch is said
to be suited for inland marine appli-
cations such as dredges, cargo
winches, or lock mules, as well as
standard marine uses such as off-
shore drilling platforms, commercial
fishing rigs, and cargo handling.
The unit features high-strength
castings, including a one-piece
frame with dual tie-bar supports.
This special Harnischfeger engi-
neered design promotes precise
component alignment and provides
rigid, lightweight drum support. I t
also helps minimize deflection un-
der load and prevents binding of the
drive train.
The winch is designed primarily
for use with
3
/4-inch wire rope with
the following ratings:
3
/4-inch rope
at 3.5 to 1 rope safety factor and
23 +PD/d, with 1,154 feet of rope
capacity on seven working layers;
7
/8-inch rope at 5 to 1 rope safety
factor and 20 +PD/d, with 848 feet
of rope capacity on six working
layers. The maximum first layer line
pull is rated at 24,000 pounds with
first layer line speeds greater than
250 feet per minute.
The winch's brake is located on
the drive shaft opposite the hydrau-
lic motor where it is not subject to
the fatigue cycles of lifting and low-
ering loads. This improves reliabili-
ty of the braking system and allows
easier brake servicing.
To verify brake reliability, the
Model 2080 was cycl e-tested
through one million actuations at
the Technical Center. Post-test
evaluation of the unit showed no
signs of slippage, leaks, fatigue
cracks, heat discoloration or signifi-
cant wear.
HATLAPA
Established in 1919 at Uetersen,
about 18 miles north of Hamburg,
Hatlapa Uetersener Maschinenfa-
brik GmbH now manufactures
products exclusively for the mari-
time industry. Exports account for
about 60 percent of production, and
Hatlapa has a worldwide network of
service stations. The company is
represented in the U.S. by Arnessen
Corporation.
Technical development at Hatla-
pa has been directed into five major
product categories: deck machinery,
compressors, evaporators, steering
gears, and transverse thrusters. The
idea of five products from one
source is said to allow shipyards to
cut costs during the planning and
installation phase.
A considerable share of Hatlapa's
production comprises ship-moving
and cargo-handling deck machinery,
the greater part of which involves
ship-moving deck machinery under
the categories of anchoring and
mooring equipment consisting of
windlasses, capstans, automatic and
non-automatic winches, combined
windlasses and mooring winches, an-
chor capstans, towing winches, and
anchor-handling/towing winches.
Recent developments include an

which the hydraulic pump sets are
installed. This eliminates extensive
piping from hydraulic pump sets in-
stalled below deck to deck winches.
All winch functions can be con-
trolled remotely from the bridge as
well as the winch. The windlass is
combined with a roller chain stop-
per for 50-mm stud link chain. This
unit allows an automatically con-
trolled lowering of the anchor at a
constant speed.
Also new in Hatlapa's production
program are the freshwater evapo-
rators of the Atlas Bremen type
designed for freshwater production
of 3.9 tons per day. The range of
evaporators offered by Hatlapa pro-
vides a daily capacity of up to 100
tons.
The company's series of 4-cylin-
der, ram-type steering gears with
built-in rudder carrier has been ex-
tended. The new type R4L 380
steering gear is designed for a rud-
der stock diameter of 160-380 mm
having a split type rudder carrier,

HIAB CRANES
With its exceptional freedom of
movement provided by the "knuck-
leboom" principle, the 110 Sea
Crane from HIAB Cranes & Load-
ers, Inc. of New Castle, Del., has
proven very successful on a number
of documented cargo- and material-
handling applications. These cranes
are currently in worldwide use on
many types of tugs, supply vessels,
icebreakers, dredges, barges, re-
search vessels, buoy- and light-tend-
ing boats, firefighting vessels, diving
support craft, and oil pollution re-
covery boats.
When compared with stiff-boom
cranes and derricks, the knuckle-
boom crane is said to offer a wide
range of desirable features for ship-
board use including precise load
handling, extra capacity and re-
duced reach, total overload protec-
tion, minimal storage and mounting
space, and an abundant work area
coverage.
Because of the flexible elbow or
"knuckle," the HIAB 110 crane has
a low operating height. This feature
prevents the crane from interfering
or entangling with the vessel's rig-
ging or other overhead obstructions.
The simple but effective design, the
sophisticated use of corrosion-resis-
tant materials in its construction,
and the high-pressure hydraulic sys-
tem makes the 110 crane lighter in
weight than conventional cargo-
handling units; this weight differ-
ence also permits a bigger cargo
payload.
Designed specifically for use in
the saltwater environment, the
HIAB 110 is constructed with gal-
vanized components, waterproof fit-
tings, nickel/chrome-plated boom
cylinders, and is protected further
with special marine coatings for
maximum corrosion resistance.
Compact in design and extremely
maneuverable, the 110 can be oper-
ated by one man.
The crane also incorporates a pro-
prietary one-piece control valve that
provides smooth, responsive, and
exact crane movements. Pilot-con-
trolled check valves inside the con-
trol valve hold the boom and load
dead still in position, even over
extended time periods. The HIAB
110 also features built-in protection
against overloading and line failure.
Every valve function has pressure-
relief valves that prevent lifting
should the load be too heavy. Hose-
failure valves on the inner and outer
boom clyinders immediately arrest
the lowering movements if any of
the lines should fail.

J ohnson Series 322 automatic tow-
ing machine and the Series 400 trac-
tion winch for the four ARS-50
Class vessels being built by Peterson
Builders in Sturgeon Bay, Wise.
These Rescue and Salvage Ships
will be deployed for a variety of mis-
sions, including towing, diving,
heavy lift, rescue, and other assis-
tance work.
LIEBHERR
To insure compliance with mod-
ern handling and lifting equipment
requi rements, L i ebherr-Werk
Nenzing GesmbH in Austria has
been working with cargo-handling
companies, shipping lines, and ship-
builders in recent years to develop a
series of cranes matched to the spe-
cific operating requirements of such
companies.
During the design stages, particu-
lar attention was paid to the full
range of applications, ease of main-
tenance, and economy and high reli-
ability for operation aboard ship.
For river and seagoing ships with
a limited, fixed-point height, the
crane type BW-S was developed.
Until now, the restricted installa-
tion height on such vessels had pro-
hibited operation of on-board
cranes. The Liebherr BW-S folding
crane has an installed height of only
650 mm when folded (stowed).
These cranes are available with lift-
ing capacities of 3-15 metric tons,
and a radius of up to 49 feet. They
have their own drive assembly and
can be installed on hatch covers, on
side-mounted columns, and inside
hatches.
For seagoing ships with a beam of
up to about 60 feet, the crane type is
designated BW-SM. These loading
cranes are of slim, low-height de-
sign, and feature a boom that pivots
above the cab so that the operator
has an unobstructed view of the
work area. They have load capaci-
ties of 5-35 tons and radii of up to 72
feet. Among the special features of
these cranes are their small external
dimensions, achieved despite instal-
lation of the access ladder inside the
tower. Containers spotted around
the bottom section of the crane can
still be loaded and unloaded in any
order.
Crane type B-SM is designed for
seagoing ships of all sizes. These
cranes feature a tried and tested
hydraulic ram luffing system. One
of the advantages of this system is
positive boom guidance, even at
minimum radii. Both standard
width and SM versions are avail-
able; maximum installed width of
the SM version is just under 8 feet.
The lifting capacity of these
cranes, installed as single or twin
deck cranes, is between 15 and 40
metric tons. Single cranes of SM
design are available at up to 80-tons
rating, and in the standard width,
up to 120 tons. With reduced lifting
capacity, these cranes can be oper-
ated at a radius of up to 111.5 feet.
An alternative to the B-SM
cranes is Liebherr's B-HP versions.
This crane is designed for operation
on ships with restricted headroom;
overall installed height has been re-
duced by altering the boom pivot
design. A further advantage of this
design is the crane's lower overall
center of gravity at any height. Lift-
ing capacities and outreach of the
cranes in this series are the same as
for the B-SM versions.
MacGREGOR-NAVIRE
Formed following the acquisition
of MacGregor I nternational by
Kone Oy, of Finland, which already
owned Navire Cargo Gear Interna-
tional, this new company is a major
force in the area of cargo access
equipment and systems.
Both partners have developed nu-
merous designs of specialized equip-
ment including, in the area of deck
machinery, all manner of hatch cov-
ers. The range of covers designed
vary from units for the largest bulk,
OBO, and ore/oil carriers down to
the smallest inland waterway ves-
sel.
Recent innovations for folding
covers on medium-sized vessels
have included the self-engaging
auto cleat and the gravity cover.
The self-engaging auto cleat system
uses angular interlocks, or wedges,
on the cover side/coaming and at
the cross joints to form the cleats. I t
has been incorporated in the "Di-
rect Pull," "Foldtite," and "Fold-
link" cover designs.
The entry into service of Atlantic
Container Line's container-roll-on/
roll-off (CONRO) vessel Atlantic
Companion also marked the intro-
duction of the first full outfit of Mac-
Gregor-Navire's StackCell weather-
deck cell guide system. The new
ship was built by Kockums for the
account of Transatlantic AB, one of
the three Swedish partners in the
ACL consortium.
MacGregor-Navire lists the ad-
vantages of the new StackCell sys-
tem as follows:
Increased number of fully loaded
containers that can be loaded in one
stack.
Wide flexibility in container stow-
ing distribution.
No loose lashing, twist locks, or
joining cones required.
(continued)
TEXACO'S PREMIUM QUALITY MARINE LUBRICANTS ARE...
October, 1986 27
(continued)
Elimination of any manual lash-
ing.
Risk of accidents minimized.
No need for checking or retighten-
ing of lashing during sea voyage.
Quicker placing or "spotting" of
containers.
Handling operations can start
without any preparation or unlash-
ing work.
No waiting for intermediate lash-
ing or work after completion.
Easy and safe access to reefer con-
tainers.
These considerable advantages
have been achieved after much pre-
liminary design work and prototype
testing carried out by the efforts
and expertise of ACL, TransConsul-
tants, and MacGregor-Navire.
The most obvious vessel that
would gain maximum advantage
from weatherdeck cell guides is the
fully cellular containership. Other
applications envisaged by MacGre-
gor-Navire include the feeder ship,
the bulk/container carrier, the open
bulk carrier, and the whole spec-
trum of CONRO, RO/RO, and RO/
LO designs.
MANITEX
Manitex Inc., a subsidiary of The
Manitowoc Company, Inc., designs,
manufactures, and markets pedes-
tal-mounted box-boom and lattice-
boom cranes at a modern, two-plant
facility near McAllen, Texas.
Ideally suited for dockside, ma-
rine, land-based, or pedestal-
mounted applications, Manitex Sea-
Cranes are constructed of marine-
quality components, with complete
material traceability available upon
request. In addition, each crane fea-
tures a versatile modular design to
permit fast servicing and easy
changeability of components from

SeaCranes includes four box-boom
models: the 15-ton-capacity MB-
300; the 25-ton-capacity MB-600;
the 40-ton-capacity MB-1200; and
the 60-ton-capacity MB-2400.
Manitex complements its box-
boom cranes by offering six lattice-
boom models, all available with full
weather enclosures to permit opera-
tion in harsh environments. Current
lattice-boom models include: the 25-
ton-capacity ML-600; 45-ton-capac-
ity ML-1200; 55-ton-capacity ML-
2400; 75-ton-capacity ML-4800; and
the 150-ton-capacity ML-9600. In
addition, Manitex recently devel-
oped its 200-ton-capacity ML-
14400, which is scheduled for de-
livery to a major offshore drilling
company in the near future.
SeaCranes exceed the stringent
operating codes established by the
API, Lloyd's, DnV, NMD, and ABS.
Other advantages and features in-
clude all-modular designs, full 360-
degree swing capability, auxiliary
winch systems, single- and double-
taper box booms, on-board and re-
mote control systems, on-board and
remote power units, anti-two-clock
systems, and variable-height gantry
arrangements. In addition, Mani-
tex's worldwide distributor network
provides complete parts and service
availability 24 hours a day, seven
days a week.
MARATHON
Marathon LeTourneau Compa-
ny's line of port handling equipment
is in operation around the world.
The line includes the rubber-tired
Model 2582CH, a top-pick sideport-
er that lifts and carries 20- and 40-
foot containers. The Model 2682SS
(solid-state) sideporter handles
both containers and trailers, and the
SST-100 solid-state, single-beam
straddle hoist handles both 20- and
40-foot containers.
This straddle hoist can span up to
six rows of containers stacked three
high, with room to pass another con-
tainer over the top. All Marathon
LeTourneau port equipment is pow-
ered by the company's dependable
diesel-electric drive system.
MARCO
In addition to improvements
made to existing products, Marco of
Seattle introduced three new pieces
of fishing deck machinery recently.
First was a new aluminum longline
drum, used in a variety of longline
fisheries on both coasts of the U.S.
and Canada, as well as in other areas
of the world. The hydraulically pow-
ered drum features gear drive that
makes it powerful enough that no
secondary hauler is required. The
new unit also features a diamond-
screw levelwind and a unique de-
clutching motor and adjustable drag
brake to control freewheeling
speed.
Marco's San Diego-based subsid-
iary, Campbell Industries, recently
introduced a long-needed product
for the world's high-seas tuna purse
seine fisheries. Its new purse block
for large superseiners is larger and
yet 50 percent lighter, as 210 pounds
(95 kg), than any other block of its
capacity (20T/18mt).
This new, stronger block features
a spring-loaded grease reservoir to
automatically maintain lubrication
under load, eliminating the problem
of bearing failure due to inadequate
lubrication. The design also handles
1-inch (25-mm) connecting links
through its throat, which are neces-
sary to handle the heavier loads on
7
/8-inch (22 mm) purse lines with 1-
inch center piece.
The most recent introduction by
Marco was its unique line of Foam-
Flo fish pumping systems. Designed
to meet the particular needs of the
salmon and herring fisheries, the
FoamFlo was developed with its
chief goal being fish quality. The
challenge has been to develop a
pump that could handle great quan-
tities of product, and yet treat both
small and large species without
damage. With its unique combina-
tion of injected water and air creat-
ing flow, FoamFlo answers this im-
portant challenge.
MARKEY
Markey Machinery Company's
marine equipment production for
1985 reflected the generally limited
activity of the entire industry. De-
velopment work on larger anchor-
handling and towing winches antici-
pates the mooring in deeper waters
that is coming.
Large catcher/processor fishing
vessels are requiring heavier winch
equipment than the standard U.S.
and imported units. And oceanogra-
phers are seeking larger and more
sophisticated winches with micro-
processor-based instrumentation to
increase data-gathering productivi-
ty and payload protection.
Although further adjustments ap-
pear likely, these areas as well as
spot requirements for robust deck
machinery with low life-cycle costs
are helping to bridge the gap.
McELROY MACHINE
McElroy Machine & Manufactur-
ing Company of Gulfport, Miss.,
already actively manufacturing ma-
rine deck equipment for the com-
mercial fishing and offshore support
industries, is now venturing into
government equipment manufac-
turing, as well as specialized com-
mercial requirements. Presently,
several contracts for the Depart-
ment of Defense are being com-
pleted, which are for diesel-driven,
double-drum winches of several
sizes. Contracts with the Army
Corps of Engineers and the Coast
Guard have been completed recent-
ly, as well as an oceanographic
winch for J ohns Hopkins Universi-
ty.
The commercial fishing industry
has seen McElroy supplying equip-
ment for large catcher/processors,
and an upswing in the standard Gulf
of Mexico type trawlers. Also, a
brisk overseas business for commer-
cial fishing equipment has devel-
oped.
The trend in commercial work-
boats has shifted to specialized ves-
sels requiring purpose-designed
equipment. These vessels include
dredges, diving support craft, line-
handling tugs, landing craft, fire-
boats, as well as cruise ships and fer-
ries. Each of these types has its own
specific requirements, and McElroy
has met each of the requirements in
stride. Examples of this specialty
equipment include a fiber optic ca-
ble-laying reel for AT&T and a
refueling-at-sea hose reel for the Ar-
gentine Navy.
This diversity has allowed McEl-
roy to continue to grow and remain
successful in these changing times.

out sacrificing speed. By manufac-
turing its own cylinders and valves,
HIAB maintains strict quality con-
trol over its products.
Morgan Crane Company provides
comprehensive service support in-
cluding technical assistance at cus-
tomer locations worldwide.
NABRICO
An all-new hand winch specially
designed for use on barges and tow-
boats, and for other winch applica-
tions where significant holding ca-
pacity is required, is the latest inno-
vation in deck fittings from Nash-
ville Bridge Company (NABRICO)
of Nashville, Tenn.
Of all-steel construction, the
mini-profile design winch has a 40-
ton holding capacity. In addition,
both right- and left-hand models are
available, promoting increased safe-
ty for the operator. A feature of the
winch that should make it especially
attractive to the marine industry is
the accompanying "D" ring that al-
lows the unit to be swivelled a full
180 degrees, providing a significant
degree of maneuverability.
Gears, side plates, ratchet, and
shaft are precision-machined to in-
sure proper gear tooth engagement
and minimize wear. Large bronze
bushings with grease fittings on all
shafts add to the useful life and
dependable service of the winch.
The new hand winch utilizes
many features of the original NA-
BRICO hand winch, including a
quick-release action, a handwheel
for fast take-up, and a foot brake for
run-out control. In addition, many
parts for the new winch are inter-
changeable with parts for other NA-
BRICO winches, making repair or
replacement easier, and all parts are
available from Nashville Bridge
Company or many of its distribu-
tors.
Addition of this mini-profile hand
winch is said to make NABRICO
the only full-line manufacturer of
deck fittings in the industry, and it
is a complement to their existing
line of hand, hydra-electric and
electric winches, hatch covers, kev-
els, bitts, buttons, and other prod-
ucts.
NABRICO is a wholly owned sub-
sidiary of The American Ship Build-
ing Company of Tampa, Fla. The
company has been in the marine
field for more than 70 years, and
offers a complete line of deck hard-
ware for towboats, barges, and ter-
minals serving the marine industry.
With plants in Nashville and Ash-
land City, Tenn., NABRICO is a
major supplier of marine deck hard-
ware to the entire industry. The
company pioneered in the design
and construction of much of the
modern equipment used on the in-
land waterways today.
NATIONAL CRANE
For medium- to heavy-duty lift-
ing jobs afloat or ashore, National
Crane Corporation's Marine Lifting
System provides a choice of pedes-
tal-mounted, telescoping hydraulic
cranes and accessories that will
complete any task quickly and effi-
ciently.
National marine cranes are a fa-
miliar sight on ships and fishing ves-
sels, on docks and offshore plat-
forms, at oil terminals, and in many
other marine applications. The wide
selection of boom lengths and lifting
capacities, combined with the quali-
ty engineering features standard on
all models, has made them suitable
for any saltwater application.
The choices start with the eco-
nomical Marine 200, and range up-
ward through the 400A, 600A, and
800A series. The 200, with a rated
capacity of 10,700 pounds and 28-
foot hydraulic boom is suitable for
use on smaller boats and barges, for
general-purpose dockside and ter-
minal work, and on offshore plat-
forms.
For medium duty, there is the
400A, with 16,000 pounds rated ca-
pacity and 55-foot boom; its depen-
dability has made it a workhorse of
fishing fleets. The 600A fills the
medium- to heavy-duty range with
its 25,000-pound maximum lift and
66-foot boom.
With 35,000 pounds rated capac-
ity and 75-foot, four-section hy-
draulic boom, the Marine 800B has
become a favorite for heavy-duty
lifting where long reaches are re-
quired. Its extra-solid construction
means more time on the job and less
downtime, even under extreme
duty.
Regardless of size, all National
marine cranes share design features
to boost reliability and perfor-
mance. Maximum strength and ca-
pacity are achieved through the use
of computer-aided box section boom
design. The boom sections are built
of four high-strength, low-alloy
members. Weight is cut without sac-
rificing strength by use of thicker
top and bottom plates. The low-
hydrogen welds on corner seams are
ultrasonically tested for proper pen-
etration. The boom extends sequen-
tially, an advance National intro-
duced to the industry. Mechanical,
not hydraulic, locks provide greater
reliability without wasting hydrau-
lic power.
Full marine conditioning is stan-
dard on Nati onal tel escopi ng
cranes. External surfaces are sand
blasted, coated with inorganic zinc
primer, painted, and covered with a
durable chlorinated rubber topcoat.
Interior surfaces are primed and
painted to help prevent corrosion.
All lift cylinder rods and boom pivot
pins are stainless steel to withstand
saltwater and chemical environ-
ments. Continuous welds are used
wherever possible to prevent corro-
sion in crevices.
These marine cranes, like all Na-
tional telescoping cranes, are equip-
ped with standard anti-two-block-
ing systems to prevent crane dam-
age. Precision rack-and-pinion tur-
ret rotation is standard on the Ma-
rine 200, while the larger models use
planetary rotation gearboxes.
NATIONAL SUPPLY
Ci r cl e 44on Reader Servi ce Card
A cargo-handling barge designed
to accept a National Supply Compa-
ny continuous lift jacking system
enables the operator to readily con-
vert the barge into a stable platform
for loading and unloading. The
barge uses a rack-and-pinion jack-
ing system originally developed by
National for offshore drilling and
production platforms.
With the legs jacked up, the barge
retains its mobility and can be easily
towed between sites. Once in loca-
tion, the barge is jacked up to create
a stable platform at various deck
levels. The jacking system, which
has a smooth, continuous lifting
movement, uses an arrangement of
horizontally opposed pairs of pin-
ions that provide positive engage-
ment with a preeision-cut, double-
sided rack.
The National jacking system has
been used in 18 different rig designs
and is offered by more than 30 ship-
yards around the world. Literature
available from National contains
specifications for various unit ar-
rangements, tensile properties for
its components, and a description of
other features, including pushbut-
ton control operation and various
safety features.
Individual leg control is accom-
plished at a central console, where
the operator can operate all legs
individually or simultaneously, with
mixed hull-up and hull-down opera-
tions. Each climbing pinion has an
individual gear motor and gear train
drive, with each motor having an
electromagnetic-released, springset,
fail-safe multi-disc brake.
NAUTILUS CRANE
Nautilus Crane & Equipment
Corporation, headquartered in Re-
serve, La., has completed fabrica-
tion and testing of one of the most
unique offshore cranes ever de-
signed. This Model 380L lattice
boom crane has an 80-ton capacity
and is mounted on the Nautilus
Model 300P rolling gantry platform.
The 380L can traverse the plat-
form on two separate and perpen-
dicular sets of longitudinal beams,
and has the special capability to
move from one set of beams to the
other. This permits the single crane
to accomplish tasks that would nor-
mally require two or more separate
cranes.
The crane is capable of traveling
with loads along the beams at the
rate of 40 feet per minute. Position-
ing of the rolling gantry requires
that the operator simply switch the
hydraulic system from the propel to
the hoisting operation. During a lift-
ing operation, the rolling gantry
cannot be moved (release of rolling
gantry propel lever automatically
slows travel and sets brakes). The
primary and secondary retaining
rollers are always engaged, and all
crane functions are operative while
the gantry is stopped.
The 380L is powered by an on-
board Caterpillar diesel engine. A
multi-pump drive is directly cou-

NEUHAUS
J .D. Neuhaus Hebezeuge GmbH
& Company of Witten-Heven, West
Germany, manufactures a full line
of pneumatic hoists, trolleys, mono-
rails, and mechancial hoists with
lifting capacities of up to 100 tons.
These hoists, which were developed
in close cooperation with the users,
are said to offer advantages that can
solve lifting problems quickly and
economically, particularly in the
shipbuilding industry, above or be-
low deck, and in the offshore sec-
tor.
J DN pneumatic hoists, the stan-
dard models, are suitable for appli-
cation in areas where there is danger
of explosion. Should increased ex-
plosion protection be required, such
as on offshore platforms, the hoist
can be provided with higher spark-
ing protection. This includes gal-
vanized chain, copper-coated load
hook, and brass safety catch. In trol-
leys, wheels and gear wheel drive
can be provided in bronze.
In comparison to their lifting ca-
pacity, J DN pneumatic hoists are
light and easily transportable, ro-
bust; insensitive to steam, smoke,
humidity, and extreme tempera-
tures; need little maintenance, and
are simple to operate. Lifting and
lowering speeds can be regulated by
rope controls. All these J DN hoist
characteristics are valued by users
in more than 90 countries.
PACECO
The continued growth of contain-
erization has resulted in the demand
for container-stacking gantry cranes
with increased speeds as well as
higher stacking capabilities. To
satisfy this need, Paceco, Inc. of
Gulfport, Miss., a pioneer in the
development of such cranes for
more than 25 years, has introduced
a Hi-Lift/High-Speed version of its
standard rubber-tired Transtainer
crane.

The new crane is capable of hoist-
ing 20-foot and 40-foot containers
weighing up to 30 long tons, 25 per-
cent faster than previous designs. In
addition, the 74-foot span crane's
lifting height has been increased by
9 feet to accommodate a stack of
9 V2 -foot tall containers five high
and six wide. This is a full tier high-
er than the industry standard and
effectively increases the size of the
container yard storage area by 25
percent.
Other significant features include
a 5-foot wider wheel span (or track)
to improve stability, air condition-
ing in the cab, and a ground-to-cab
intercom system. The diesel-pow-
ered generator system has also been
improved with the addition of a tur-
bocharger to the standard blower
induction system.
The first two of the new cranes
were delivered recently to Terminal
Island, Berths 229 and 233, at the
Port of Los Angeles. These cranes
are owned by Overseas Shipping
Company and Metropolitan Steve-
doring Company, respectively.
Paceco manufactured the world's
first high-speed, dockside, ship-to-
shore container-handling crane in
1958. Today there are more than
300 Paceco-designed Portainer
cranes in operation throughout the
world.
A new generation of Portainer
cranes will be appearing during the
next few years, just in time to ser-
vice the latest generation of very
large containerships. Outreach will
increase to 155 from 135-145 feet;
clearance under the spreader will
jump from 80 to nearly 100 feet; and
rail gauges of 100 feet will become
standard to accommodate more
traffic on the dock.
A world leader in the design and
manufacture of container-handling
equipment, Paceco is a subsidiary of
the Fruehauf Corporation.
PETTIBONE
Pettibone Corporation of Chicago
manufactures a full line of pedestal-
mounted Marine Kranes for use on
docks and offshore platforms, as
well as on shipboard. Capacities
range from 5 to 100 tons. Hydrauli-
cally extendible knuckleboom and
fixed booms, both box and lattice,
are available. With special features
such as inorganic paint to withstand
salt-laden, corrosive environments,
they are built to provide years of
trouble-free service.
Pettibone has been building and
improving cranes for the marine in-
dustry since 1964, so built-in fea-
tures are the result of more than 20
years of design work. Today, as part
of a continuing research and devel-
opment program, the company has a
list simulator for safety testing of
cranes manufactured for shipboard
applications.
The Solus vessel Tengar, one of a
fleet that services Royal Dutch Shell
offshore drilling platforms in the
South China Sea off the coast of
Borneo, is equipped with a model 40
PMp Petti bone Marine Krane.
Mounted on the main deck forward
of the hatch, the 40 PMp provides
needed reach with a 110-foot boom
and 360-degree rotation. I ts remote
power pack is installed below deck,
and controls are within easy reach of

WASHINGTON CHAIN
A new machine from Washington
Chain & Supply Inc. of Seattle of-
fers an easy, hydraulically powered
method for wire rope socketing.
Marketed under the name Cab-L-
Mate, the machine provides a one-
man process for positioning wire
rope into a socket.
The machine is offered in two ver-
sions. Model 101 accommodates
wire rope up to 2 inches thick and
operates with dies in Vi -inch incre-
ments. The larger model 201 han-
dles wire rope from 2 to 4V4 inches;
dies for the 201 are made to special
order only. Both machines are hy-
draulically operated with manual
control valves.
WASHINGTON CRANES
Washington Cranes of Seattle, a
division of Ederer, Inc., offers a new
generation of revolving cranes said
to have increased reliability, lower
maintenance, and more efficient op-
eration due to the greatest possible
capacity for a given size.
Typical of the line is the 150-ton
revolver installed at Todd's Seattle
yard. Advanced design concepts in-
corporated in that crane include Ed-
erer DC adjustable voltage controls
for all motions, all-electric opera-
tion, and a high-efficiency opera-
tor's cab. The crane has all indepen-
dent hoists, each with its own solid-
state control.
All gearing is in totally enclosed
oil baths, and all hoist machinery is
gear-driven. These new cranes have
unique travel trucks, with each
drive motor driving one wheel. This
design allows increased load on ex-
isting tracks. The diesel generator
house is located over the portal to
isolate noise, lower the center of
gravity, and improve accessibility.
The main hook lifting capacity of
the Todd crane is 150 tons at a 55-
foot radius, and 50 tons at 120 feet.
The auxiliary hook lifts 15 tons at
all radii from 61 to 210 feet. Main
hook speed is 12 feet per minute,
auxiliary is 100 fpm. The boom can
be fully elevated from the lowered
position in three minutes.
WILDEN PUMP
Wilden Pump and Engineering
Company of Colton, Calif., has an-
nounced the "Supersaver." Every
new Wilden pump incorporates a
redesigned, state-of-the-art air dis-
tribution system that provides up to
13 percent greater pumping capac-
ity and reduced air consumption av-
eraging more than 10 percent across
the entire performance range. This
redesigned system focuses on op-
timizing air flow, aerodynamically
tuning ports and passageways to
minimize turbulence and drag, re-
ducing internal energy losses, and
maximizing energy transfer to the
fluid being pumped.
The operating principles and ba-
sic structure of the Wilden valve,
which has provided the highest level
of reliability for more than 25 years,
remains unchanged. Wilden has
simply made one of the best a little
better by re-engineering compo-
nents unrelated to the critical shift-
ing functions that make the air
valve superior to many other valve
systems. The ability of the valve to
deliver high reliability operating on
typically "dirty" plant air or against
a stall, or in intermittent service at
minimum air supply pressures re-
mains unchanged.
Todd-Seattle Awarded

Drewry Predicts Growing
Demand For Larger
Products Carriers
London-based Drewry Shipping
Consultants Ltd. foresees a 40-per-
cent increase in the refined oil prod-
ucts trade, from 250 million metric
tons in 1985 to 350 million metric
tons by 1990. This would raise de-
mand for products tankers by 7 mil-
lion dwt, the report states.
The principal growth in the trade
will be between refiners in the Mid-
dle East and North Africa, and im-
porters in Northern Europe and on
the U.S. East Coast. This changing
trade pattern will find larger prod-
ucts carriers sailing on these routes,
as the bigger ships are more eco-
nomical for the long- and medium-
haul products trades. Tankers of
about 80,000 dwt will become more
common, Drewry said.
The most popular size for prod-
ucts tankers has been about 30,000
dwt; 50 percent of the total world
products tanker fleet of 38,744,000
dwt are carriers in the 25,000 to
40,000 dwt range. At the end of J une
this year, vessels in the 65,000 to
90,000 dwt range accounted for 26
percent of the world orderbook. In
1982, only six percent of products
tankers on order were in this range.
OMI Bulk Receives

flag tanker. The contract period is
17 months, with two additional 17-
month opti on peri ods. Four
hundred fifty bids were solicited,
and ten offers were received. The
Military Sealift Command, Wash-
ington, D.C., is the contracting ac-
tivity (N00033-86-C-1704).

Kamatics Offers New
Free 22-Page Catalog
On KAronBearings
Kamatics Corporation, home of-
ficed in Bloomfield, Conn., is offer-
ing a free, full-color, 22-page catalog
on their line of KAron Bearings,
including spherical, rod end and
journal configurations.
The KAron bearing system is gen-
erated by swaging a metallic sleeve
around a spherical ball creating a
non-uniform cavity between the
sleeve and ball. The KAron materi-
al, a homogenous composite matrix
of a polyester resin base with poly-
etrafluorethytlene (PTFE) and oth-
er solid particles, is then injected
into this cavity, conforming 100 per-
cent to the ball while bonding itself
to the sleeve. Through the use of a
non-uniform cavity, a mechanical
lock is created ensuring liner reten-
tion.
The Kamatics publication lists
the features of the KAron bearing
system as: minimal liner wear; self
lubrication; 100 percent liner to ball
conformity; zero backlash; low pre-
dictable torque; excellent corrosion
resistance; and reduced liner deflec-
tion.
Configuration drawings and spec-
ification charts are included in the
catalog.

Imperial Has Saved More Lives
Than Any Other Survival Suit
The calls and letters keep coming in- the details are different-
but the end result is the same: People who wore an Imperial
Survival Suit lived! Imperial kept them afloat, warm and alive,
even when freezing waters killed their unprepared mates.
One oil rig worker thanked us for saving his life after a
hurricane-driven 50-foot wave swept him into the sea for over
20 hours. In another documented case, our Suits enabled four
men to survive nine hours in 35F water and 25 hours on a frigid
beach. A pilot who put an Imperial Survival Suit on before he
ditched his single-engine plane was rescued in the icy North
Atlantic after 10 hours of being battered by 25-foot waves.
So far, more than 335 people have informed us they cheated
death by wearing Imperial Survival Suits. And that's a small
percentage of those who actually put their Imperial Survival
Suits to the test.
Without an Imperial Survival Suit, cold water kills quickly. Even
with a flotation device, the chance of surviving without adequate
insulation is remote.
Imperial is The World's
Best Selling Survival Suit
Th er e ar e near l y 100,000 I mper i al Sui t s i n use. With good
reason. Imperial's suits are built and backed better. Extensive
research and development plus testing of every suit continuously
upgrades performance while reducing prices. Our customer
service and satisfaction is second to none. And we provide
complete education and training both in person and on videotape.

U.S. Naval Station
Selects Megadoors
Literature Offered
Four Megadoors were selected for the U.S. Naval Station
at Annapolis, Md., because of the performance and econo-
my they provide for such large openings.
Earlier this year the Navy took over several
new buildings to be used for ship maintenance,
sand blasting and painting. Four Megadoors
were selected for the facility because of the
peformance and economy they provide for such
large openings. The door sizes are two doors 30
feet high by 35 feet wide, and two doors 30 feet
wide by 30 feet high.
Megadoor has doors at most major shipyards
all over the world, varying in size from doors 100
feet wide by 100 feet high down to doors in sizes
20 by 20 feet.

The 80-foot luxury catamaran is powered by twin Rolls-Royce designed, 12-cylinder marine
diesels. The owner, Bottom Time Adventures of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., uses the vessel to
conduct diving expeditions throughout the Bahamas.
Rolls-Royce Desi gned
Mar i ne Diesels Mak e U.S. Debut
In New Cat amar an
The first U.S. installation of Per-
kins Engines' Rolls-Royce designed
marine diesels is in an 80-foot-long
and 30-foot-wide luxury catamaran
built for Bottom Time Adventures
of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.
Bottom Time conducts diving ex-
peditions throughout the Bahamas
as well as island cruises and, there-
fore, requires a special and unique
boat.
The three-deck catamaran, which
stands 30 feet above the water line,
is designed for comfort as well as
performance. I t is powered by twin
Rolls-Royce designed CV 12 marine
diesels that provide 800 horsepower
each at 2,100 rpm. The boat has a
cruising speed of 22 knots, with a
top speed of 30 knots and a range of
over 2,000 miles per tank of fuel.
Designed by International Cata-
maran of Australia, the boat was
built by Atlantic and Gulf Boat
Builders, Inc. of Ft. Lauderdale un-
der the supervision of Bottom
Time's Ron Piccari, the captain,
and A.J. Bland, director. The en-
gines were supplied by Perkins
Power Corp. of Miami, the Perkins
distributor in Florida.
Mr. Bland said the all-aluminum
catamaran has many unique fea-
tures, beginning with a high-speed
displacement hull which makes it
different because high speed is
usually obtained with planing
hulls.
In addition to the Rolls-Royce de-
signed main propulsion engines, on-
board engine requirements are fur-
nished by two 5kw marine generator
sets powered by Perkins 6.3544 (M)
diesels. These generator sets pro-
vide power for a water desaliniza-
tion unit and central air-condition-
ing, among other things.
Perkins Engines, Inc., of Wayne,
Mich., is a leading supplier of ma-
rine diesels in North America offer-
ing engines ranging from 3V2 to 800
horsepower. The company is part
of the Perkins Worldwide Group,
Peterborough, England, which ac-
quired Rolls-Royce diesels in 1984.
Last year, Perkins established a
milestone in the diesel-manufactur-
ing industry by producing its 10 mil-
lionth engine.

Literature Offered
Serodino, Inc.'s Hales Bar, Tenn.,
shipyard recently launched the
Cummins-powered excursion vessel
River Queen for the Knoxville Riv-
erboat Company. The 550-passen-
ger vessel will be operated on the
Tennessee River near Knoxville.
The River Queen, including the
landing stage, has an overall length
of 135 feet. Its hull is 107 feet long,
35 feet wide and 7.5 feet in depth.
Main propulsion is provided by
two Cummins NT-855-M diesel en-
gines to twin Michigan Nibrow 40-
inch by 32-inch four-blade propel-
lers through Twin Disc MG509 re-
duction gears with a 2.95:1 ratio.
The NT-855-Ms are each rated at
300 hp at 1,800 rpm. Electrical pow-
er is provided by two 80-kw Lima
generators driven by Cummins
6BT5.9 diesels. Both the main pro-
pulsion and generator engines were
supplied by Cummins South, Inc. of

Capt. Robert M. Lumpp, owner
and president of the Knoxville Riv-
erboat Co., worked closely with ar-
chitect A. Lawrence Bat es of
Louisville, Ky., on the design of the
River Queen. The result of their
efforts is a vessel design much like
the sidewheelers of yesteryear, ex-
cept that it is operated with mod-
ern-day Cummins powerplants.
The elegantly furnished Queen

MacGregor-Navire (MGN), the
leading designer of cargo access
equipment (CAE), has supplied the
innovative shortsea RO/LO vessel
Alster Rapid with a shipset of CAE
that for originality and the mix of
cargo made possible by its use, must
stamp it as unique. The 2,515-dwt
vessel, though small, is equipped so
that it offers the cargo-handling ca-
pabilities of ships much larger.
The recently delivered Alster
Rapid was built by the Hamburg
yard of J .J . Sietas for the West Ger-
man owner Henry Stahl, who
immediately deployed the vessel in
his U.K.-trading Washbay Line.
The new ship will form part of a
thrice-weekly service operated by
the line for more than 20 years.
All four of the vessel's cargo decks
above the tanktop level are entirely
composed of removable flush-fitting
panels. Each level, in fact, is a stow-
able MGN hatch cover that com-
pletely spans the hull to constitute a
deck. Each deck includes an indi-
vidual panel (or panels) that also
does duty as interdeck ramps.

Shortsea RO/LO vessel Alster Rapid, built
by Sietas yard in Hamburg, is extensively
fitted with unique shipset of MacGregor-
Navire cargo access equipment.
When the cargo to be loaded
requires the removal of any deck,
the panels of which it is formed can
be rolled into stowage and stacked,
both movements being performed
automatically ; the only exception is
the four panels on the forward part
of the upper deck, which fold into
stowage. Replacement of a deck is
also automatic, the unstacking and
rolling (and unfolding) being per-
formed in reverse order.
Long cargo (up to about 148 feet)
can be loaded vertically using shore-
side cranes but the principal mode
of access is horizontal, cargo being
rolled over the stern via a 200-ton-
capacity ramp that, in keeping with
the singular nature of all this ship's
CAE, is adjustable in length, width,
and height. Width and height ad-
justment were included to cater for
specific berthing conditions at ports
acoustic and gasketing compounds.
The Claremont publication also in-
cludes a "Claremont Gasketing Ma-
terials" general information table.
The table gives the grade, binder,
color, standard thickness, primary
use, principal properties, applica-
tions and maximum service temper-
ature of four grades of Claremont
gasketing materials.
barges, these being floated/winched
aboard through the stern in what
the owner calls the slip-on/slip-off
(SO/SO) mode. For this operation,
one of the main deck panels is
placed athwartships (there is a 5-
ton crane fitted aft for this purpose)
to form a watertight bulkhead lo-
cated about 59 feet forward of the
stern ramp, thus creating a separate
section. For embarking floating car-
go, the stern ramp is lowered to an
angle of 20 degrees below the
horizontal, its end reaching about 10
feet below the waterline. This expo-
sure of the sternthe so-called
"open air" sectionalso enables the
loading of cargo of unlimited height
when the upper deck panels within
the sternmost section are removed.
Flexibility in cargo operations is
greatly enhanced by the multi-
angled ramp situated within the 59-
foot-long sternmost section. This
ramp, the two ends of which are sep-
arately height-adjustable by means
of four jigger winches, is used as an
extension or continuation of the ex-
ternal stern ramp. This facility, to-
gether with ramps on the main and
weather decks (which may or may
not have to be brought into use),
permits direct access for wheeled
cargo to any deck. The criteria for
use of the main/weather deck ramps
will depend on the gradient to be
climbed, which in turn is deter-
mined by the quay height.
The Alster Rapid has an overall
length of 290.6 feet, beam of 46.9
feet, depth to main deck of 16.6 feet,
and draft of 16.7 feet. Propulsion is
provided by a MAN B&W 8L 28/
32-FVO diesel engine with an out-
put of 1,530 bhp, giving a speed of
13 knots.
For complete literature fully de-
scribing all MacGregor-Navi re
equipment,

justment, in which the ramp can be
hinged at any one of the four decks
above the tank top, enables the ship
to be worked at any quay height or
tidal level, thus eliminating the
need for link span berthing.
Another unusual feature of the
Alster Rapid, which the MGN ac-
cess equipment is designed to facili-
tate, is its ability to load fiat-bot-
tomed floating cargo such as small

Quick Delivery Reduces
Drydocking Costs For
Navy Bearing Replacement
With drydocking costs sometimes
topping $10,000 per day, shipowners
take a serious interest in delivery
schedules for replacement parts,
even when their resources are as
vast as those of the U.S. Navy. The
problem becomes increasingly acute
when replacements can be ordered
only after the original parts have
been removed in drydock and exam-
ined for wear.
This fact came to light with the
recent refitting of propeller shaft
bearings for the Military Sea-
lift Command tanker Kawishiwi
(T-AO-146). One of six Neosho
Class oilers, the 38,000-ton vessel
has a cargo capacity of approxi-
mately 180,000 barrels of fuel oil.
The Kawishiwi's two propeller
shaft liners were found to be worn
beyond acceptable levels during a
recent overhaul at Versatile Pacific
Shipyards Inc. in North Vancouver,
B.C. The under-size liners made it
necessary to replace her two stern-
tube and two strut bearings with
over-size components. The over-size
bearings brought the critical clear-
ance between the 21 Vs -inch shaft
liners and the bearings back to an
acceptable Vs inch.
Normal procurement time for re-
placement of the original bearings
with the same type is 10 days for
manufacturing, plus normal ship-
ping time. With the assistance of
Vancouver distributor Pacific Pro-
pulsion Ltd., the shipyard ordered
Thordon XL elastomeric stave bear-
ings from the manufacturer, Thom-
son-Gordon Ltd. These staves were
manufacturered in a one-step mold-
ing process and delivered to the
yard all within seven days.
Apart from fast delivery, the
Navy can expect further benefits
from the oiler's new bearings. The
material has a coefficient of friction
that is less that half that of rubber.
Therefore, at slow speeds, before
hydrodynami c condi ti ons are
achieved and water becomes the ef-
fective bearing surface, less torque
will be required to drive the ship.
This will result in reduced bearing
and liner wear, quieter running, no
"stick-slip" phenomenon, a measure
of fuel economy, and longer life for
most of the final drive components.

Peterson Gets $96.6-Million
Navy Contract To Build
Two Additional MCMs
The Naval Sea Systems Com-
mand has awarded a $96.6-million
contract to Peterson Builders, Inc.
of Sturgeon Bay, Wise., for con-
struction of two more mine counter-
measures ships, the MCM-6 and
MCM-8. The Wisconsin yard al-
ready had three MCMs on its order-
book under contracts total i ng
$180.2 million.
The new MCM, the first mine
countermeasures ship developed by
the Navy in almost 30 years, have an
overall length of 224 feet, beam of 39
feet, and displacement of about
1,200 long tons. They will be equip-
ped with the most modern combat
systems to effectively search for, de-
tect, and neutralize a variety of
mine threats. In addition, the ships
will be fitted with mechanical, mag-
netic, and acoustic minesweeping
systems.
The MCM is constructed entirely
of wood, a combination of oak fram-
ing and Douglas fir planking and
deck sheathing. The superstructure
is a combination of solid and lami-
nated woods. The entire ship is cov-
ered with GRP fiberglass for envi-
ronmental protection. The MCMs
are built of wood to reduce their
overall magnetic signature when
hunting mines that are programmed
to detonate based on a magnetic
force field.
Tideland Introduces
New Buoy Design For
Deepwater Applications
m
f
Tideland's Sentinel SAB-12 provides a sta-
ble, striking visual target for ships entering a
large offshore oil port on Gulf of Mexico.
Tideland Signal Corporation of
Houston, Texas, has introduced the
new SAB-12 Sentinel Articulated
Buoy. According to the manufactur-
er, the buoy has outstanding sta-
tion-keeping capabilities and may
be deployed where water depth
makes placement of a fixed struc-
ture impractical.
The SAB-12 consists of two rigid
tubes flanged together above the
waterline, a submerged buoyancy
section and a cylindrical fiberglass
daymark. The buoy is held in place
i r
by a tension element of jacketed
Kevlar rope attached by a swivel
to a large concrete sinker. When the
buoy is installed it is said to be
exceptionally stable, displaying
minimal watch circle.
High above the waterline and im-
pregnated with bright, permanent
color, the daymark cylinder is a
striking visual target. All Tideland
navaids and Sola Vivasolar electric
generators are designed for depen-
dability and will operate for many
years with minimal maintenance.
Exceptional visibility is a priority of
the SAB-12's design: the focal plane
of the lantern is 25 feet above MWL,
and the radar reflector has a range
in excess of eight miles. Adding a
frequency-agile SeaBeacon racon
can make the buoy's location clear
to oceangoing vessels more than 15
miles out, night and day in all
weather conditions.
Sentinel Articulated Buoys are
available in a range of sizes for a
variety of applications and water
depths up to 200 feet. Tideland
offers a computerized buoy per-
formance program for custom
matching of buoy design and moor-
ings to client specifications.

" ONLY A CHOSEN FEW
COULD SURVIVE THE TRIP."
Marine floodlights go through a tremendous flood of
adversity. Torrential storms. Rough seas. And, constant
pounding. Challenges that most fixtures can't live up to.
However, Phoenix Super-Rough-Service "E" Series Marine
Floodlights survive long after the rest, because they"re
built to weather the storm. For reduced downtime, during
those critical loading and unloading operations.
Completely sealed to keep out dirt and water, these
lights feature exclusive Multiplane Socket Mounts which allow
lamps to float safely under the heavy shock and vibration
conditions that can overwhelm ordinary fixtures. Plus, the
copper-free aluminum housings resist salt-water corrosion
to keep lamps burning brightly. Even through storms that
last 40 days and 40 nights.
All models accept mercury-vapor, metal-halide or high-
pressure-sodium lamps. And, Phoenix offers variations for
hazardous service.

Reduce Engi ne Wear Rates
Literature Package Offered
The Spinner II line of in-line flow
powered oil cleaning centrifuges, a
product of T.F. Hudgins & Asso-
ciates Inc. of Houston, Texas, is now
available from Warehouse Supplier
of Lawrenceville, N.J . In addition, a
free complete literature package
with detailed brochures and pamph-
lets is being offered on the oil clean-
ing centrifuges, which fully de-
scribes their advantages, applica-
tions and features.
The Spinner II line supple ments
full-flow filtration systems on die-
sel, dual-fuel or spark-ignited gas
engines. Self powered by the en-
gine's oil pressure, the centrifuge
uses centrifugal force to remove
dirt, sludge, soot and other detri-
mental contaminants from the en-
gine oil. Such major engine manu-
facturers as Alpha Diesel, B&W Ho-
leby, Bergen, Caterpillar, Colt Fair-
banks Morse, Deutz, Isotta Fras-
chini, M.A.N., Pielstick, Wartsila
and Waukesha have used the Spin-
ner II oil cleaning centrifuge as
standard or as a standard option on
their engines.
Three models of the Spinner II
cover a range of 120 to 960 gallons
per hour and servicing is as easy as
removing the "dirt cake" from the
inner walls of the centrifuge bowl.
Oil flow through the Spinner II is
constant throughout the service life
of the unit, and it is able to capture
particulate matter the full-flow
misses down to less than .5 microns,
effectively reducing engine wear
rates. Additionally, Spinner II units
may be combined in parallel to

Hyundai Introduces
Three Standard Crude
Oil Tanker Designs
Recent increases in the oil trade
have prompted more tanker owners
to bring their laid-up tonnage into
service, while studying possibilities
of replacing obsolete vessels with
competitive new ones. This trend
could lead to increased demand for
large- and medium-sized tankers,
though a more moderate scale than
the tanker boom of the early 1970s.
In order to swiftly meet such mar-
ket conditions, Hyundai Heavy In-
dustries Company, Ltd. (HHI) re-
cently introduced three standard
crude oil tanker designs with dead-
weights of 254,000, 156,000, and
114,000 tons. Their hull form is
shaped for minimum resistance and
structured for increased speed and
greater deadweight capacity with as
used as a medical ship in Microne-
sia, and a sternwheel excursion ves-
sel for use in Fairbanks, Alaska.
In another development, the
Washington State Department of
Transportation has announced it
will purchase the 86-foot catamaran
Glacier Express from the Giers-
dorfs and use it to initiate passen-
ger-only ferry service between Seat-
tle and Bremerton, Wash., in Octo-
ber this year. The vessel will be
reconditioned and renamed; Nichols
delivered the Glacier Express in
1985.
To obtain free literature fully de-
scribing the shipbuilding services
and facilities of Nichols Brothers,
light a hull weight as possible. They
are each equipped with a propulsion
plant having a main engine with low
fuel rate, and a large-diameter, low-
rpm propeller. With the latest navi-
gation equipment, selective cargo-
handling systems, and economical
electrical plants, these prototypes
will provide clients with optimum
performance and greater economy.
HHI began its shipbuilding oper-
ation with the construction of two
VLCCs in 1973. Since then the Kor-
ean yard has become a leader in the
area of crude oil tankers. Its wide
experience with this type ship in-
cludes delivery of 12 VLCCs, eleven
62,500-dwt crude oil tankers, and
four of 80,000 dwt. HHI currently
has four tankers on its orderbook,
including one 254,000-dwt VLCC.

Columbian propellers are now manufac-
tured in CF-3 high-strength stainless steel.
Col umbi an CF-3 Stainless Propellers
Provi de Hi gh Perf ormance And Long Life
According to Bob St eeber , Co-
lumbian Bronze Corporation's di-
rector of sales, the propellers now
manufactured of CF-3 stainless
steel alloy have the strength re-
quired to allow "fine-tuning" for
maximum performance. The CF-3
does not yield under load or flex out
of pitch, and is tough enough to
resist erosion from cavitation and
service in sandy waters.
Selecting the right alloy for pro-
pellers goes beyond metal that pro-
vides high-performance design and
long life in harsh environments, Mr.
St eeber said. I t also requires a
metal that has, in addition to high
strength and toughness, a ductility
that lets it bend a little under
i mpact, minimizing damage to
shafts, couplings, and transmis-
sions.
Propellers made from CF-3, a
readily weldable alloy, can be re-
paired to "like new" condition when
necessary by a competent repair ser-
vice.
Virtually all of Columbian's pro-
peller linesTetradynes, Hydro-
flites, Makos, and Hydrosonics
can be manufactured from CF-3
stainless steel.

Over the last decade, Gladding-
Hearn lobster boats of the Kristen
& Michael class have established a
well-earned reputation among New
England fishermen. First built in
the early 1970s, these 65-foot to 76-
foot steel-hulled vessels are well-
known for their quality, durability
and overall offshore performance.
The latest boat of this class deliv-
ered by Gladding-Hearn Shipbuild-
ing of Somerset, Mass., is the Sally
& Katherine, built for the Sea View
Lobster Corporation of Rye, N.H.
Launched this past April, the 65-
foot all-steel lobster boat features a
Caterpillar 3408 DI TA marine en-
gine that produces 402 hp at 1,800
rpm. Operating in companion with a
Caterpillar 7211 reduction gear and
Columbian Hydrosonic propeller,
her oversized engine provides an
abundant power reserve even at her
top speed of 11 knots.
The Sally & Katherine's deck-
house is about 2 feet wider than that
of earlier class boats, giving her a
roomier cabin and narrower mid-
decks. The deckhouse sports a T-
shaped wood-grain-finish console,
with a 24-inch Edson wheel and a
full range of electronics. Interior ar-
rangements of the deckhouse, cap-
tain's stateroom, and crews' quar-
ters are similar to earlier class boats,
but with added touches that make
the Sally & Katherine special. Qual-
ity finished in oiled teak and for-
mica, with decks of vinyl tile, the
cabin spaces are more like those of a
seagoing yacht. They are fully insu-
lated against engine room noise and
are comfortably heated by electric
baseboard. Crew amenities include
complete galley facilities, bunks for
five hands and head facilities.
For lobstering duty, the Sally &
Katherine has a large, fully insu-
lated lobster hold amidships aft of
the engine room. A larger insulated
fish hold is aft of the lobster hold.

ment includes a Scandia 16-inch pot
hauler, grappling winch, takeout
winch, and a 1,000-pound capacity
working boom to service the fish
hold. An open stern with removable
safety rails provides a spacious deck
area for work operations, pot han-
dling and stowage.
A special feature of the Sally &
Katherine is that her steel was pre-
sandblasted and coated with zinc
prior to assembly and welding in an
effort to provide added corrosion
resistance and prolong the longevity
of this quality vessel.

Drew And MAN B&W
Conduct Joint Tests
On Fuel Additive
Drew Ameroid Marine recently
announced that it has completed a
series of tests jointly sponsored with
MAN B&W Diesel using Amergize
deposit modifier/combustion im-
prover. The extensive tests, con-
ducted on diesel engines both on a
turbocharger test bed and on-board
a ship, demonstrated the positive
effect that the Amergize fuel addi-
tive has in reducing and preventing
deposits on turbochargers of engines
that burn today's heavy fuels.
The test rig at the Augsburg,
West Germany, facility of MAN
B&W was used to simulate fouling
situations that these highly reliable
and efficient turbochargers may ex-
perience. In these tests, Amergize-
treated fuel at varying concentra-
tions were compared with a baseline
test. These tests showed not only
that Amergize can reduce the foul-
ing of a turbocharger, but that it can
be done at economical dosages.
After completion of the test-bed
evaluations, MAN B&W and Drew
agreed to jointly sponsor shipboard
trials. The vessel chosen had a me-
dium-speed diesel engine with tem-
porarily poor turbocharger efficien-
cy. The ship's crew had to water-
wash the T/C every 100 hours, and
the T/C required frequent mechani-
cal cleanings. This ship was chosen
October, 1986
to see if Amergize, when applied at
economical dosage rates, would sig-
nificantly reduce the frequency and
severity of the fouling.
After six months of comparing the
baselines to the results achieved
with Amergize, it was found that the
ship could operate for three or more
months without cleaning the turbo-
charger. In fact, this period might
be extended, but this was the lon-
gest period during the trial in which
the ship ran on Amergize. The re-
sults show that by using Amergize-
treated fuels, diesel engines are able
to burn blended fuels resulting in
less harmful fouling, lower fuel con-
sumption, and reduced mainte-
nance.
Amergize fuel additive is the la-
test in new technology from Drew
Ameroid. It is used on more than
800 ships worldwide, and has also
been tested by independent labora-
tories with impressive results.
Drew service representatives will
assist ship managers in determining
specific treatment rates and dosing
procedures for Amergize. In addi-
tion, the company offers its Pace
fuel evaluation program and its Red
Carpet Service Program for any ship
starting on Amergize, to identify the
characteristics of the fuel aboard
and determine dosage levels.

PACIFIC MARINE
EXPO
November 20-22, 1986
Seat t l e Cent er Exhi bi t i on Hal l
Pacific Marine Expo, the com-
mercial marine trade show sched-
uled for November 20-22 at the
Seattle Center Exhibition Hall, rep-
resents the largest forum for sharing
marine technology and ideas that
will take place on the West Coast
this year.
Sponsored by National Fisher-
man Expositions, the organizer of
Fish Expo and Seafood Expo, Pa-
cific Marine Expo is intended as a
western alternative to Fish Expo in
the even-numbered years in which
that show is held in Boston. A broad
spectrum of equipment vendors will
showcase their latest products and
services in the Exhibition Hall,
while the seminar program to take
place in the adjacent Mercer Forum
will bring together fishing and work-
boat industry leaders to discuss key
issues that confront them.
The 1985 Fish Expo held in Seat-
tle drew 12,730 visitors and gener-
ated approximately $100 million in
business. When surveyed at that
show, some 63 percent of the visitors
said they were likely to attend Pa-
cific Marine Expo this year. That
survey also revealed that 95 percent
of the attending vessel operators
were optimistic about their contin-
ued profitability, and envisioned
maki ng future i nvestments in
equipment and services.
Safety Conference
Now an annual event in the Pa-
cific Northwest, the third Fishing
I ndustry Safety Conference will
coincide with Pacific Marine Expo
at the Seattle Center. This year's
safety conference will focus on col-
laborative efforts by the U.S. Coast
Guard and the fishing industry to
establish voluntary safety programs
for fishing vessels. Such programs
are aimed at helping the fishing
industry reduce the losses of life and
property that occur in commercial
fishing operations.
In addition, voluntary safety ef-
forts are intended to help control
skyrocketing insurance costs for
fishing vessels, and to provide a
cost-effective alternative to pro-
posed regulatory safety enhance-
ment measures. Currently, there are
numerous legislative proposals in
Congress that would impose addi-
tional safety requirements on fish-
ing vessel operators. I ndustry and
Coast Guard spokesmen have lob-
bied against proposals that call for
mandatory safety i nspecti ons
aboard fishing vessels, however, and
have asked Congress to give the vol-
untary programs a chance to prove
themselves.
The Coast Guard has drafted a
set of technical recommendations
on the design, construction, and
outfitting vessels, and has collabo-
rated with the North Pacific Fishing
Vessels Owners' Association on a set
of operational recommendations for
fishing vessel skippers and crew-
men.
The voluntary safety program
proposed by the Coast Guard also
calls for the establishment of crew
training programs in conjunction
with fishermen's associations across
the country. Such programs have
now been established in the Pacific
Northwest and other regions. This
year's Safety Conference will fea-
ture speakers from the Coast Guard
and the fishing and insurance indus-
tries.

Endicott Reservoir. They will be assembled to
form an electrical generation system complex
emergency power plant, main power plant, and
power system control consoleto operate drill-
ing equipment off the North Slope of Alaska.
The emergency power system was designed by
Fairbanks Morse engineers to meet the require-
ments of the Sohio specifications. It consists of
two Fairbanks Morse 900-rpm turbocharged
dual-fuel engine generator sets and will be a
stand-alone system used as the normal power
supply until both the main power plant and the
power system control console are commissioned
in 1987.

New GRP Survival Lifeboats
From OME Withstand 1,000 C
A 71-man version of the Phoenix self-propelled hyperbaric
lifeboat showing water deluge system and helmsman's
position.
Halmalic Ltd., a leading United Kingdom
GRP boatbuilding company, recently was chos-
en by Offshore Marine Engineering Ltd. to
mould a range of self-propelled hyperbaric life-
boats (SPHL) for completion in OME's special-
ist facilities at Walsall, West Midlands, U.K.
Called the OME/Aqua Phoenix SPHL, these
purpose-designed vessels are for the evacuation
of up to 18 divers under pressure from diving
support vessels, platforms or rigs involved in the
offshore oil and gas industries. The design, by
Offshore Marine Engineering, meets all existing
and proposed safety-at-sea regulations, includ-
ing the amended SOLAS rules and national
requirements of the U.K., Netherlands, Norway
and U.S.
These specialized lifeboats, moulded with
fire-retardant resins throughout, consist of a
totally enclosed GRP hull and canopy with full
life support facilities for a five-day endurance of
up to 18 divers under pressure, plus an addition-
al four-man crew to provide round-the-clock
attention.
One of the main features of the Phoenix
design is the water deluge system which pumps
seawater through a series of nozzles at a rate of
1,000 liters per minute on to the GRP canopy,
protecting both the craft and its occupants from
intense heat and possible burning during eva-
cuation. This feature, combined with an integral
air system for the crew and the engine, enables
the vessel to operate in a fire or gas cloud for a
minimum of 10 minutes. In a recent test, a Phoe-
nix SPHL lasted more than 13 minutes in a fire
of free-burning kerosene at over 1,000 C. The
GRP hull and canopy remained intact and
undamaged, according to the company. During
this ordeal, the internal temperature remained
at 28 Ca testimony to both OME design and
Halmatic high quality mouldings.
The Phoenix design is also available as a con-
ventional totally enclosed GRP lifeboat.

Built to your specifications
For Sale or Lease
You can order a deck, cargo, crane,
tank or dry cargo barge built to your exact
specifications... and then lease it from
Zidell at lower cost than owning your
own. A lease plan, custom-tailored to fit
your needs, long or short term, gives you
the best of both worlds: a barge built to
precisely serve your needs, leased from
one of the country's best known marine
equipment lessors. Send for a free book-
let on our leasing and charter programs.
If you're presently operating a barge
which has out-lived its original design
use, look to Zidell to convert it. We rou-
tinely convert lumber and deck barges to
oil barges, retrofit oil barges, build float-
ing derricks and virtually anything else
you may require in unmanned marine
equipment. Send for a free booklet tell-
ing what we can do for you in building,
fitting, retrofitting or conversion of all
kinds of barges.

Racal's ISES Improves
Ship Operating Efficiency
Ship electronic systems covering
all aspects of management afloat
were presented by Racal to the
international shipping community
at the Europort Exhibition in Am-
sterdam.
Known as ISESIntegrated Ship
Electronics Systemsthe range of
equipment is being supplied by Ra-
cal Marine Systems Limited and
combines the company's extensive
electronics capability with in depth
understanding of ship operational
requirements built up over 40 years
within Decca.
The ISES concept integrates ship
operational functions into central
work stations so that command and
control from a single point becomes
practical. ISES is modular, versatile
and flexible and covers the four
main ship management areas:
bridge, engine room, cargo and ad-
ministration. Each operates in
stand-alone mode or may be inter-
connected to exchange and dispaly
information, still further improving
ship operating efficiency. Data may
be transferred ashore by the ship's
communications equipment.
The four subsystems making up
ISES are:
Bridge: IBES (Integrated Bridge
Electronic System). This comes in
two forms. IBES 100 is based on the
Racal MNS 2000 multi-sensor navi-
gation receiver and processor inter-
faced to an ARPA display and
adaptive autopilot, with the facility
to add an automatic chart table.
Transfer of data between these
units makes for a highly cost-effec-
tive integrated navigation and colli-
sion avoidance system.
IBES 1000, the more advanced
and comprehensive bridge system,
enables every mile of a ship's pro-
gress to be monitored and con-
trolled to a degree of efficiency not
previously attainable. It is possible
not only to undertake from a single
command position the safe and effi-
cient navigation of the ship but also
to perform a complete range of oth-
er functions, including voyage plan-
ning, voyage monitoring and pas-
sage economics. Full communica-
tion between the color graphics-
based work station and the ARPA
and automatic chart table allows for
the onboard creation of electronic
charts.
IBES 1000 comprises stand-alone
equipment which meets or exceeds
statutory requirements and a mas-
ter work station with MC68000-
based processor, color graphic dis-
play and control facilities which
provide simple and rapid access.
The work stations (each processor
drives up to five) communicate with
ARPA, autopilot, multi-sensor navi-
gation receiver, automatic chart ta-
ble and other navigational sensors
such as log, gyro and sounders.
Engine room: ISIS (Integrated
Ship Instrumentation System). This
draws on Racal's 20 years of experi-
ence in marine automation. I t is
based on ISIS 450 which has full
Unmanned Machinery Space capa-
bility and meets the requirements of
all major Classification Societies.
ISIS monitors and controls main
and auxiliary machinery, ballast,
trim, etc., from one or more loca-
tions as well as undertaking trend
analysis and performance monitor-
ing.
Cargo: ICES (Integrated Cargo
Electronic System). This system un-
dertakes stress and stability calcula-
tions as well as monitoring and con-
trolling cargo, including tank levels,
draft, temperatures and the status
of valves and pumps. It also pro-
vides the capability to plan, record
and produce the paperwork asso-
ciated with cargo operations and
personnel training.
Administration: IMAS (Inte-
grated Management Administration
System). This performs such time-
consuming shipborne tasks as pub-
lic and private documentation, ac-
counts, stores and stock control,
maintenance planning, training,
welfare, entertainment and word
processing. IMAS will, of course ac-
cess administrative data in the
bridge, machinery and cargo inte-
grated systems.
ISES hardware features high defi-
nition, fast response color displays
with dedicated keyboard and rolling
ball cursor control, all optimized for
marine use.
The ISES family, developed after
extensive project studies and sea
trials with British Marine Technol-
ogy (formerly BSRA and NMI) and
BP Shipping, presents the ship
operator with new and highly flexi-
ble ways of increasing ship efficien-
cy.

More Than 500 Vessels Now
Coated With Jotun Seaconomy
Ship No. 500 to be protected with J otun's Seaconomy
low-cost antifouling is VLCC World Champion.
The 273,117-dwt VLCC World Champion
owned by World-Wide Shipping of Hong Kong
recently became the 500th ship to be coated by
J otun's Seaconomy, a low-cost, selfpolishing an-
tifouling said to give a drydocking interval of 30
months.
The range of antifoulings available from the
worldwide network of J otun Marine Coatings,
headquartered in Sandefjord, Norway, incorpo-
rates the latest developments in selfpolishing,
organotin copolymer technology. Seaconomy,
the most recently introduced product that went
on the market only 18 months ago, was specially
developed to replace the long-life antifoulings at
no extra cost. In addition, the company's Sea-
mate HB gives optimum antifouling protection,
while Seaflex was formulated for upgrading of
existing conventional long-life antifoulings.
Providing a linear rate of biocide release, the
low-cost Seaconomy is said to offer better anti-
fouling performance than a long-life treatment.
In addition, its selfpolishing action insures that
there is no increase in hull roughness while in
service.
Seaconomy can often be used without shot-
blasting, needs no sealing coat, and normally can
be applied in a single coat for drydocking inter-
vals of 24 months, depending on the condition of
the hull. According to J otun, no really effective,
conventionally acting, long-life antifouling sys-
tem is available for such infrequent mainte-
nance.
The selective protective treatment on the
World Champion comprised two coats of J otun
Vinylguard Silvergrey modified vinyl primer,
followed by a single coat of Seaconomy. This
enabled the owner to follow a very tight dry-
docking schedule and obtain the benefits of a
selfpolishing antifouling.

American Ship Awards
Contract For Preliminary
Passenger Ship Design
The American Ship Building
Company of Tampa, Fla., recently
signed a contract with the naval
architectural firm of Knud E. Han-
sen of Copenhagen for the prelimi-
nary design and engineering, and
specifications for two 800-passenger
cruise ships. The Danish firm is one
of the world's foremost designers of
passenger vessels.
American Ship plans to build the
two cruise ships at its Tampa Ship-
yards Inc., with portions subcon-
tracted to another subsidiary, Nash-
ville Bridge Company in Tennessee.
The company plans to operate the
ships in the Hawaiian interisland
trade with an as yet unidentified
partner.
These ships would be the first big
oceangoing passenger vessels built
in the U.S. since the SS United
States was delivered in 1952.
The system mounts directly on
the main propulsion shaft and re-
quires only 56 cm (22 inches) of
shaft length. All systems are totally
precalibrated, requiring no further
adjustment. The Model 1600A
measurement systems continuously
display shaft horsepower, torque,
and rpm.
Features and benefits include:
ready to use immediately after in-
stallation; easy and rapid installa-
tion; no shaft redesign or disassem-
bly; shaft sensor operates in harsh
environments; low maintenance; not
affected by torsional pulses; and
zero and full-scale calibration verifi-
cation while underway.
In addition to a description of the
system, the publication discusses
system components, operation,
1600A specifications, options, etc.
