first of a series of seven PT Class patrol boats to the Government of

Brunei Darussalam for the Royal

Brunei Police Force.

This 48-foot fast patrol craft has a 14-foot breadth and a draft of 4 feet.

She is powered by twin MAN B&W

D2840 LE diesel engines rated at 635 hp at 2,300 rpm, and can obtain speeds of 33 knots. She has a range of 310 nautical miles at a speed of 22 knots.

SSE has designed the PT Class patrol boat to operate in rough sea conditions with good stability. This type of craft is excellent for coastal surveillance, enforcement patrols and other coast guard-type applica- tions.

Normally operated with a crew of seven, the PT Class fast patrol boat has a single chine planning hull incorporating a deep-Vee forward and a moderate dead rise aft. The hull is of all-welded aluminum con- struction with close framing.

SIR SEEWOOSAGUR

Jansen Werft

Jasen Werft of West Germany de- livered the versatile tug Sir Seewoo- sagur to the Mauritius Marine Au- thority, last year. At present, she is operating around the small islands of the Mauritius archipelago.

The Sir Seewoosagur has an over- all length of about 96 feet, breadth of 31V2 feet, and draft of 15 V2 feet.

Main propulsion is by two K.H.D. type of SBV 6 M 628, engines with an output of 1,000 kw each at 900 rpm, running through two Voith-

Schneider propellers.

The tug will also be operated as firefighting vessel, and therefore a corresponding system of pumps, monitors, etc., is installed. In addi- tion, the vessel carries extensive antipollution equipment.

De Groot en van Vliet

The Smit-Lloyd 56, one of the first of a new class of tug/firefight- ing/supply boats to enter service, was delivered last year by the Rot- terdam yard of De Groot en van

Vliet. She is presently supporting activities on the Dutch Continental

The multipurpose tug features a four-engine main propulsion layout—two Wartsila 1,500-hp en- gines and two 1,100-hp engines.

They have a bollard pull of 70 tons and have a total horsepower rating of 5,200.

This 50 Series vessl has two 400- hp bowthrusters, a 400-hp stern thruster and Class 1 firefighting outfit.

Smit-Lloyd 56 to carry muds, brine, fuel, drill water and a variety of car- goes. The tanks are fitted with self- cleaning devices, and advanced elec- tronic systems provide for full re- mote control from the engine room of all loading/discharge operations.

SEA CUSHIONS.® The tough foam filled fenders with the soft touch.

Whether you're a vessel owner or a terminal operator, you need a fender that's not only tough, but soft enough to cushion and absorb the high energy impact of ship to ship transferor ship to quay berthing without hull damage i : , or overloading of dock structures. That fender is appropriately .t • ± w s named SEA CUSHION. And it's tough because we make it that 19: way. It's unsinkable even if punctured. It's abrasion- resistant and extremely durable, be- cause of its rugged elastomer skin.

So if you have the need for some tough protection with a soft touch,

SEA CUSHION is it. Sizes available for fishing vessels to ULCC's.
