When you spot Elbe One, you're not far from Gulf. \

Hamburg is a fine port for going ashore. The trick is to get there without going aground.

The estuary of the Elbe is treacherous. Elbe 1 is moored at its mouth, well over the horizon from any landfall. Just to her north and south lie Grosser Vogels- land and Scharhorn Riff, the outermost shoals of the estuary, over 60 km from safe waters.

Once you've passed the islands of Scharhorn and

Neuwerk, surrounded by drying sands, you're on the home stretch. Another 10 km and you'll spot Cuxhaven to starboard and 15 km beyond, you enter the roadstead of Brunsbuttelkoog. From here, it's clear sailing upriver to Germany's busiest port.

Hamburg. Still another port where you'll find pre- mium Gulf marine lubricants like Gulf Veritas DPO oils.

These alkaline detergent lubricating oils are for use in medium and high-speed diesel engines burning distillate or marine diesel fuels. They're formulated to

MIL-L-2104B level performance with added alkaline reserve to neutralize the acidic products of combustion, plus the dispersant detergent qualities needed to main- tain a high degree of component cleanliness.

All of Gulf's marine products give you maximum- quality, performance and bottom-line economy. They're available, backed by a complete and comprehensive service capability, at ports of call throughout the world. For specifics, please contact your IKTWJQM local Gulf representative. HI ^TlVl U
