Four New Bay-Houston Tugs

Are $9.2-Million Addition To Fleet

In what may be a maritime first, Bay-Houston Towing Com- pany recently christened its four newest tugboats in a single cere- mony held at City Dock 4 in the

Port of Houston. These four new vessels, built at a total cost of $9.2 million, represent the second phase of a $16.9-million expansion and upgrading of the Bay-Houston fleet.

Cecil R. Haden. president of the

Houston-based firm that is now the largest harbor tug fleet oper- ating on the Texas Gulf Coast, christened the tug Captain W.D.

Haden, named after the compa- ny's founder. The other three ves- sels were christened by the family members whose names appear on the respective bows: W.D. Haden

II, Barbara H. Neuhaus, and Mark

Kuebler. The family-owned Bay-

Cecil R. Haden, president of Bay-Houston

Towing Company, christens the firm's newest tug named after his father, the founder of the towing company, Captain

W.D. Haden. The new vessel is the only

SCR diesel electric tug built for Gulf Coast service, and one of four just christened.

Houston Towing has always fol- lowed the tradition of naming its boats after family members. The fleet now totals 16 tugs.

The Captain W.D. Haden, de- signed and built by Halter Marine of New Orleans, is the first sili- con controlled rectifier (SCR), diesel-electric tug built for Gulf

Coast service. And it is the first tug to bear this name in the com- pany's 100-plus years' history.

Captain W.D. Haden started the operation using mules on a tow- path to pull sailing craft up Cedar

Bayou in the late 1870s.

The new tug is powered by three GM/Stewart & Stevenson 16V149TI turbocharged diesel- generator sets, each 1,000-kw, 600-volt ac—a total of 4,020 bhp through Ross Hill SCR controllers driving two General Electric 567 dc motors and Philadelphia Gear reduction gearing. The 106-foot by 34-foot by 16-foot vessel has twin four-bladed, stainless-steel propellers turning in Kort noz- zles.

The Captain W.D. Haden is fitted with a Markey TES-32, single-drum electric towing winch with a capacity of 2,100 feet of 2-inch wire. Bollard pull is 115,- 000 pounds ahead, 92,500 pounds astern. Other equipment includes central air-conditioning and heat- ing, all-electric galley, foam fire- fighting system, Halon-protected machinery space, gyrocompass, autopilot, Loran, radar, Fathom- eter, SSB radio, two VHFs, and (continued on page 26)

Four new Bay-Houston tugs were christened recently during single ceremony at

Port of Houston. They are (L to R): Captain W.D. Haden, W.D. Haden II, Barbara

H. Neuhaus, and Mark K.
