Introducing the U.S.

Colt-Pielstick Fleet.

Built in the United States for American Ships.

Our Pielstick diesels are in the en- gine room of the new ore carrier the

MV "Roger Blough". They are al- ready in service in the Falcon fleet. (The four Falcon tankers set the pace for new U.S. Flag merchant vessels.)

Plus, you'll now find Colt-Pielstick diesels in the new MV "Sugar Is- lander"—a new 28,000 dwt C & H

Sugar carrier. Then, a unique tug and tank barge, "CATUG" for Sea- bulk Tankers. Also, the Military Sea- lift Command fleet of 25,000 dwt tankers being built by Todd Ship- yards.

The reason?

The Pielstick is more economical than steam or gas turbines. More compact and lighter in weight than cast-block engines. This allows maximum flexibility in ship design with benefits of larger payloads, smaller engine rooms, far aft instal- lations, and greater variety of ma- chinery arrangement.

Pielstick engines are the most experienced, the most widely used marine diesels in the world, in ex- cess of 7 million horsepower for marine service alone. Pielsticks power more than 700 vessels in ser- vice or on order. More than 50% of all medium speed diesels at sea are

Pielsticks.

American built Colt-Pielstick PC-2 diesels are available in ratings from 5,000 to 9,000 hp, 10 to 18 cylinders.

Every unit is backed by a world- wide service organization with facil- ities in major ports.

For vessels in your future, specify

Colt-Pielstick PC-2 diesel propulsion systems, including controls and monitoring from our Power Systems

Division.
