The Study:
The 3800 h.p. M/V Thomas W. Martin, is the latest addition to the Gladders Towing
Company fleet. It was ordered from St. Louis Ship, only after a thorough perfor- mance study was made. Mr. G. Warren Gladders, president of the firm, along with Mr.
Thomas Gladders and Mr. Thomas Clark, personally observed the efficiency and performance of late model St. Louis Ship towboats, designed and built with the exclu- sive Hydrodyne Hull. G. W. Gladders, who was recently Chairman of the American
Waterways Operators Association, studied competitive towboats as well. Then, based on these actual performance records, the M/V Thomas W. Martin was ordered from St. Louis Ship.
The Result:
When you need a new towboat, make it a Hydro- dyne. Owners testify St. Louis Ship's exclusive hull form develops the highest propulsive efficiency known. Just call us at (314) 638-4000. 0 ST. LOUIS SHIP DIVISION OF POTT INDUSTRIES INC. 611 EAST MARCEAU STREET, ST. LOUIS, MO. 63111
