Third diesel Enginator is added to jumbo-ized ferry to provide total of 1500 kw
The "Malaspina," owned by State of Alaska, Dept. of Public Works,
Division of Marine Transportation, provides service between south- eastern Alaska ports and Seattle. To fill increasing demand for de- luxe service, she has had 58 feet added to her length and another 500 kw in reserve ship's service power.
The "Malaspina" was originally equipped with two Wau- kesha V12 diesel Enginators, each rated 500 kw at 900 rpm. When the vessel was jumbo-ized, the owners made the decision to rely again on proved Waukesha power. They added a new, updated
VHP V12 diesel Enginator of the same 500 kw rating of the first two units.
The choice of Waukesha for the reserve ship's service power was a natural. In addition to complete parts interchangeability, the performance record of the two original units was exceptional.
Waukesha's marine specialists have a wide range of propul- sion and engine-generator sets to offer —all with Waukesha's tra- ditional reliability and long life. For complete information, contact your authorized Waukesha distributor.
One of three VHP V12 L5790 DSIM Enginators on the "Malaspina." For ship's service power, Wau- kesha offers units from 47 to 1110 kw.
