Liner Norway Fitted With

New MaK-Driven Gensets —Literature Available

Two of the latest additions to the growing number of MaK type M35 diesel engines now in service are those recently installed in the SS

Norway, the world's largest cruise liner. Owned by Klosters Rederi

A/S of Oslo, the Norway operates mainly in the Caribbean area. How- ever, during a recent visit to Europe she paid a brief call at Hamburg where the two MaK diesel generator sets were installed. Each engine de- velops 3,600 bhp at 750 rpm and drives a three-phase Siemens alter- nator producing 3,150 kva.

Installed by Klosters to improve the ship's power system, it is ex- pected that the Norway's electrical requirements of 6-7 megawatts will be produced mainly by the new gen- sets. Operating on heavy fuel oil of 320 CST, the new gensets should halve the fuel costs of the former turbogenerators.

MaK produces a range of diesel engines covering outputs from 1,000 to 13,500 bhp, suitable for main pro- pulsion or generator drive. The company has extensive experience with heavy fuel operation dating back to 1964, and all its engines are designed for operation on bunker fuels up to 700 CST.

MarineSafety Offers

Radar Renewal Course —Literature Available

MarineSafety International (MSI), a training organization for bridge and engineering officers lo- cated at LaGuardia Airport in New

York City, is inaugurating a one-day radar endorsement renewal course for individual ships' officers. The new course includes some unique features such as guaranteed plotting proficiency and a free refresher ses- sion prior to sea duty. Open to all licensed merchant marine officers, this course is something new for

MSI, whose courses usually are sponsored by shipping companies or government agencies.

The one-day course covers radar plotting and maneuvering decision- making practice on realistic, inter- active ships' bridge simulators. The exercises cover both coastwise and offshore situations. Emphasis is on practice in analyzing information and vessel maneuvering in complex collision-avoidance situations. The same licensed, experienced instruc- tors who conduct MSI's courses for major shipping companies are used.

The course meets IMO, USCG, Ca- nadian, Liberian, and other national standards. The fee for the one-day course is $165 per person.
