The State Of Alaska

Asks For Bids To Construct

Passenger/Vehicle Ferries

The State of Alaska, Department of Public

Works, Division of Marine Transportation, joint- ly with the Department of Highways, have an- nounced that they are requesting bids from ship- yards on a nationwide basis for the construction of two 235-foot diesel-powered passenger-vehicle ferries to augment their Southeast Alaska Ferry

Service.

The vessels are to be steel, transversely framed of all-welded construction with a full, complete double bottom fitted within the engine room. They will be fitted with twin rudders, and propulsion will be by twin 2,100-shp diesel engines driving twin fixed-pitch propellers through reverse reduc- tion gears. The ships' service power will be pro- vided by two 300-kw diesel generator sets, and emergency power will be provided by one 75-kw diesel generator set.

Passenger facilities are to be provided on the upper deck and superstructure deck. These facili- ties will include an observation lounge, foyer, sit- ting room, and coffee shop with cafeteria type food service. A corner cocktail bar will be lo- cated in the port side of the coffee shop. Public toilets will be provided on the upper deck.

The starboard gallery deck and navigating bridge deckhouse will accommodate the crew and officers. An officers' messroom and crew's mess- room will be provided on the upper deck ad- jacent to the galley, but remote from the passen- ger area.

A solarium will be installed on the sun deck to provide a sheltered, panoramic viewing area for passengers. The solarium will be lighted and provided with infra-red radiant head units for passenger comfort.

Vehicle access will be through side doors port and starboard in the forward part of the vessel and by hinged ramps at the bow and stern. A hinged, hydraulically operated "Knighthead Vi- sor" type bow is to be installed. A turnabout will be mounted in the main deck located between the two side doors for turning heavy vehicles.
