Port Weller Dry Docks

Delivers Bulk Carrier

With Fuel Efficient Hull

A maximum Seaway-size 34,- 000-dwt self-unloading bulk car- rier incorporating a new hull de- sign for reducing fuel consump- tion was christened at Port Weller

Dry Docks in St. Catharines, On- tario, recently. The 730-foot ship was named Canadian Enterprise by Maureen McTeer, wife of Can- ada's Prime Minister. It was built for Upper Lakes Shipping Ltd. of Toronto, and is the third self unloader of this size delivered by the shipyard to Upper Lakes

Shipping in the past three years.

The Canadian Enterprise is similar in all respects except one to the Canadian Transport, wh;ch was christened at the yard last

April. The one difference is the design of the stern. Below the waterline are what appear to be the tops of two half tunnels which direct a greater volume of water against the propeller. Because of this feature, the ship's medium- speed diesel engine will develop the same amount of thrust as an engine with greater horsepower, resulting in a saving in fuel of about 10 percent.

Canadian Enterprise is equipped with the latest type of cargo re- claimer and automated console

Port Weller Dry Docks, its sub- sidiary, Canal Electric Ltd., and a material-handling company. The console is located in the control room on the forecastle deck.

The ship is powered by two

M.A.N, diesel engines generating 8,750 bhp. It will have a service speed of 13 knots, and will carry a crew of 30. $14.3-Million Title XI

Sought For 50 Barges

And Towboat Repowering

Riverway Co., 7703 Norman- dale Road, Minneapolis, Minn. 55435, has applied for a Title XI guarantee to aid in financing the construction of 50 dry cargo hop- per barges and the repowering of a triple-screw towboat.

The hopper barges will be built at Twin City Shipyard Co., St.

United States.

The estimated actual cost of the project is approximately $14.3 million. If approved, the Title XI guarantee will cover $12.6 mil- lion.
