Joins Concorde Line

As Vice President

Roland Malins-Smith has been appointed a vice president of Con- corde Line, according to an an- nouncement by Donald T. Quinn,

Concorde's president. Mr. Malins-

Smith will be located at Con- corde Lines' home office in Miami,

Fla. Prior to joining Concorde, he had been general manager of

West Indies Shipping Corpora- tion (WISCO) in Port of Spain,

Trinidad.

A native of Grenada, Mr.

Malins-Smith joined the Carib- bean Community Secretariat in

Georgetown, Guyana, in 1970 as a research assistant (shipping), and was promoted to senior econ- omist by 1976. He was appointed general manager of West Indies

Shipping in April 1977, and was the main architect of WISCO's financial recovery.

In his new position, Mr.

Malins- Smith is expected to play a major role in Concorde Line's expanding Caribbean services.

Concorde recently added two more vessels and commenced containership service from New

York, Baltimore, and St. John,

New Brunswick to Jamaica, Hai- ti, Dominican Republic, and Trin- idad. These two new ships are in addition to the three RO/RO vessels operating out of Miami to Caribbean destinations.

New Brochure Describes

Repair Facilities At

Norfolk Shipbuilding

A new, four-color brochure containing scores of photographs and describing the ship repair and drydocking services offered by Norfolk Shipbuilding & Dry- dock Corporation is now avail- able at no cost from the Virginia shipyard. One of the largest ship repair complexes on the U.S. East

Coast, Norshipco provides the in- ternational maritime industry with 24-hour services, with the emphasis on quality of work per- formance.

That commitment to quality has been emphasized with the completion of a $27-million proj- ect that permits maintenance and repair for some of the world's largest oceangoing vessels. High- light of the project is the Titan— one of the world's largest and most modern floating steel dry- docks.

Norshipco is situated on the

Elizabeth River in Norfolk, and entered through the Port of

Hampton Roads. Departing ves- sels can proceed into Chesapeake

Bay without encountering bridg- es. The yard's work force is more than 4,000 and growing.
