APL And Encinal To

Develop Container

Terminal In Alameda

American President Lines, Ltd. (APL) of Oakland, Calif., and

Encinal Terminals of Alameda, recently announced agreement to develop a 23-acre full-service berth and container facility in the is- land city of Alameda. Target date for completion of the initial phase, to be capitalized at $3.5 million, is October 1, 1980.

The new venture was an- nounced by W.B. Hubbard, sen- ior vice president (operations) of

APL, and president of Eagle Ma- rine Services, Ltd., the wholly owned subsidiary which will op- erate the facility; and Chengben (Peter) Wang, president of En- cinal Terminals, Alameda.

Mr. Hubbard said the project has been launched to help meet massive expected demand, on the part of vessel operators and the shipping public, for container fa- cilities in the San Francisco Bay

Area over the next decade and beyond.

The new terminal is to include a berth for oceangoing container vessels, two modern gantry cranes, facilities for 1,000 dry and refrig- erated containers, and an innova- tive receiving and delivery sys- tem for trucks. To be located at the Encinal Terminals' Berth 5 complex, it will be Alameda's only full-service container-handling op- eration.

Raymond L. Cunan, vice presi- ident and general manager of

Eagle Marine, said the developers of the project are currently ne- gotiating with several vessel op-

MARINE DIVISION erators as prospective tenants. He said the facility will be fully op- erational upon completion of "phase one," but that additional development on the site is pro- jected.

Eagle Marine is a comprehen- sive container stevedoring con- tractor, providing services in Los

Angeles, Oakland, and the Pacific

Northwest for APL and other vessel operators. 110 Norfolk Street, Walpole, Mass. 02081, Tel. (617) 668-9610, Telex: 92-4445

MORE POWER ID YOU

KaMeWa Model 200 CP Thruster

Power makes the difference. And size. The Model 200 is now in produc- tion. We capitalized on the latest technology without sacrificing the qualities which made our 1000 HP

Model 80 the most successful thruster in the world.

Propeller diameter and input pinion speed are identical in both models.

But the KaMeWa 200 accepts input horsepowers up to 1500!

We reduced overall tunnel length. Re- duced the hatch removal clearance.

Result: a thruster that's smaller.

Streamlined. With greater flexibility for location in restricted spaces.

For even more powerwe also produce the Model 240 (to 2200 HP) and the

Model 250 (to 3000 HP). Contact

Gary Dayton for additional information.
