Pride Of Texas Levingston Scores Many "Firsts" With Launching Of Bulk Carrier "Pride Of Texas" (SEE PAGE 12) especially for marine use

@ CD REFRIGERATORS/FREEZERS/STORAGE UNITS You can now combine these units in less than 5 cu. ft. of floor space. Capacity of refrigerators and freezers is 6 cu. ft., storage units of 11 cu. ft. A refrigerator with ample space for ice cube trays and/or frozen foods is ideal for officers' quarters. For mess or galley, combine a refrigerator with a storage unit or a freezer. If you need 12 cu. ft. of either refrigerator or freezer space, combine two similar units using our optional stacking frame with functional air grille to save valuable deck space. We also have a complete line of standard, portable and under-counter refrigerators from 4 to 102 cu. ft., AC or DC. AC units with blower-type evaporators are self-defrosting. All units rat- proofed in accordance with U.S. Health Service requirements.

(D WATER COOLERS Model B14M has an easy-to-clean top, a recessed rust-resistant base and mounting brackets for bolting cooler to the deck, all of stainless steel. Panels are of pearl gray baked-on enamel finish but are also available in stainless steel at slight extra cost. Cooler capacity is 14 gals, of 50°F. water per hour. Bubbler has a built-in pressure regulator assuring an even flow of water at line pressures of 20 to 125 psi.

(D ICE CUBERS BAILEY Kold-Draft* Ice Cubers, occupying only 71/i sq. ft. of floor space, have a capacity of up to 1,200 lbs. per 24 hours. Add-A-Unit feature permits increasing this capacity without using more floor space. All models compensate for a 15° roll and/or pitch. Units have a special condenser, valves and fittings, permitting salt water to be used for cooling. Models are in gray acrylic baked-on enamel; stainless steel finish is an optional extra. Daily capacities range from 110 to 1,200 lbs. using ice storage bins. Immediate delivery of complete units or repair parts from any of our four warehouses. *Reg. TM Uniflow Mfg. Co. ? AIR CONDITION RS Water-cooled, self-contained units have cabinets of heavy gauge steel, protected with rust inhibiting primer possessing excellent water immersion, salt spray and humidity resistance. Finish is neutral beige, baked enamel. In 3, 5, 71/2 and 10 ton models, AC or DC. Smaller models (AC only) are available for areas where deck space is at a minimum. Whereas iisiHiiiiiH other models must allow several inches for breather space, these fit flush against the bulkhead iiiiiiiiiiHi because the permanent-type, air return filter is in the front and the directional, controllable air discharge grille is on the top. In models ranging from 9,400 to 27,500 BTU/hr capacity, they are self-contained and sea water cooled. May be installed easily and inexpensively anywhere on a ship.

I When you purchase any kind of automatic equipment, be certain that your supplier can furnish proper service when needed. BAILEY maintains qualified mechanics to install units and service them properly, as well as a team of engineers to cope with any problems that may arise.

Master time can be Green- wich Mean or home port time, n while local time is ship's time. The system also has an automatic digital calendar that provides serial time information for data and bell logging or other processing equipment. Microproc- essor-based, solid-state electronics assure that the system is maintenance-free. And because of a locking panel, the master clock system is free from unauthorized time changes.

The engine is coupled to a Hjelset controllable-pitch propeller via a Volda/Liaaen reduction gear. Propeller speed is 294 rpm at 750 rpm on the engine. A transverse propeller is fitted in the bow, and the ship has an emergency diesel/electric plant that will provide a "take- home" speed of 7 knots. The wheelhouse and cargo control room are designed as a gastight emergency survival compartment for the crew. It is equipped with comprehensive rescue and survival gear such as separate air and oxygen supply and a special first aid station. A compartment for a chlorine absorbtion plant, including a tank for caustic soda, is arranged forward. The ship is built with one cargo hold containing one independent, cylindrical cargo tank with a capacity of 388 cubic meters. A cofferdam is installed between the cargo hold and engine room. The double bottom and side cofferdams extend from aft peak bulkhead to the forward end ANOTHER EARLY LAUNCH — Flanked port and starboard by sister ships of the Oliver of the caustic soda tank.

Rugged boat service naturally demands rugged boat shafts. Armco" AQUAMET' Boat Shafts are built to deliver service for these rugged conditions Tough, dependable AQUAMET shafts have long been the standard for crew and supply boats- naval craft—trawler fleets—high-powered unlimited hydroplanes—and ocean power boats. With the larger diameters and longer lengths available, these premium shafts are now proving their worth in powerful inland and offshore tugboats plus a variety of other ocean-going craft. Why not see what Armco AQUAMET Boat Shafts can do to meet your shafting needs.
