The difference between our bow thruster and others is a matter of degrees. 360°.

Maneuver without delay and without extra cost—with the

White Gill Unit. It's the only hydraulic jet bow thruster that turns a full 360°- without projecting below the hull.

With White Gill Units, you can turn a vessel in its own length. Position it broadside. Nego- tiate congested docks and tight berths. Counter- act strong cross currents. Even provide main propulsion.

It's like taking your tugs with you.

The White

Gill Unit is especially de- signed to prevent fouling. And because the inlet is located down at the keel, it always stays under water—even in rough weather.

Hundreds of White Gill

Units—original equipment and retrofits—are saving time and money on tankers, tugs, oil rig service vessels, barges, research ships, salvage vessels, cable ships, and ferries throughout the world. White

Gill Units are built in the

United States and in the

United Kingdom by

Elliott, a world leader in turbomachinery.

Get the greatest degree of control you can: 360° control. Get the

White Gill Unit.

Capstans, Deck Fittings

Capstans, winches, and deck fittings are featured in a brochure now available from the Schoell- horn-Albrecht Division of St.

Louis Ship, a company of the

Pott Industries Group.

Schoellhorn-Albrecht's primary product line is capstans, both pow- ered and manually operated, but the company also manufactures a wide variety of deck fittings. The division is also a major stocking distributor for the well known

Beebe Bros, products, including power winches, hand winches, car pullers, trolleys, and hoists.

The primary market area and strength of Schoellhorn-Albrecht has been centralized around the

U.S. inland waterways. Now the 100-year-old company, which be- came a division of St. Louis Ship in 1979, is starting to expand into

Gulf Coast and Pacific Coast re- gions, and hopes to more fully develop its products that are de- signed for and directly applicable to deepwater operations.
