HAS ANYBODY
HERE SEEN A
NOHAB POLAR F
Danes have. So have French, Italians, Norwegians, Dutch,
English and Argentines. Maybe you've seen a NOHAB
POLAR F Diesel engine sometime, somewhere in the world.
NOHAB, Trollhattan, Sweden, has been making diesel engines since 1896. One of them powered the first motor ship to cross the Atlantic. Another took Amundsen to the
South Pole.
In 1962, NOHAB introduced the POLAR F, 500 to 3200 horsepower in-line or Vee types. All with a common cylinder size. They quickly set the international standard for performance and reliability in their class. Today,
POLAR F Diesels power offshore and ocean-going vessels around the world.
Now, NOHAB has appointed George Engine Company (GECO), New Orleans, its first and sole distributor for
POLAR F Diesel engines for the U.S. GECO will provide the same dependable service on POLAR F that has made it one of the world's largest Detroit Diesel distributors.
Haven't seen a NOHAB POLAR F Diesel engine? You will.
Soon.
