Eastern Marine Delivers

Trinity River To Transportation Resources

Eastern Marine, Inc. of Pan- ama City, Fla., recently delivered the 166-foot supply vessel Trin- ity River to Transportation Re- sources, Inc. of Houma, La. The vessel, built at Eastern's ship- yard in Panama City, is the fourth of a five vessel package which includes the Leaf River,

Pine River, Roaring River, Trin- ity River and Tellico River.

The Trinity River has a 38- foot beam, a 13-foot depth, and a loaded draft of 11 feet. A clear deck cargo area of 110 by 28 feet can carry up to 550 long tons of cargo.

The vessel is powered by two

Detroit Diesel 16V-149 engines delivering a total of 1,800 hp.

The engines are fitted with Twin

Disc reduction gears and achieve a speed of over 12 knots. The

Trinity River is equipped with a Schottel model S-152L bow thruster driven by a Detroit Die- sel 8V-71 engine.

Electric service is provided by

Delco generators driven by GM 6-71 85-kw engines. Navigation equipment includes Furuno radar,

Stevens SSB, Cybernet Interna- tional VHF, Micrologics Loran C, and an Impulse depth indicator.

Eastern Marine is a growing company which has earned a rep- utation in recent years as a build- er of high quality vessels with exceptionally good workmanship.

The company opened their Pana- ma City shipyard in 1978. This 13-acre facility has over 1,300 feet of water frontage and is used primarily to construct me- dium to small sized boats. Fif- teen miles east of the Panama

In addition to the vessels for
