ship Crown Odyssey was delivered by the Papenburg, West Germany, shipyard of Meyer Werft to Royal

Cruise Line of Piraeus, Greece.

The 616-foot cruise ship has a molded breadth of 92-1/2 feet and draft on summer freeboard of 22.7 feet. She has 12 decks, and is able to carry 1,221 passengers in 526 cabins.

The Crown Odyssey also has 199 crew cabins and a complement of 443.

The Crown Odyssey is powered by an innovative "father and son" four-engine plant consisting of two

Krupp MaK 8M601 "father" en- gines with an output of 10,880 hp at 400 rpm each and two Krupp MaK 6M35 "son" engines, each develop- ing 3,604 hp at 720 rpm. The plant produces a total of about 29,000 hp and a service speed of about 22 knots. The engine output is being transmitted via double reduction

Renk gears with integrated lamella couplings to a KaMeWa controlla- ble pitch propeller system. The main and auxiliary engines are de- signed to operate on heavy fuel oil

IFO 600.

Electrical power is provided by four Krupp MaK diesel generating sets with a total generator capacity of 12,500 kva as well as one emer- gency generator with a capacity of 760 kva.

Two semi-spade rudders directly fitted behind the controllable pitch propeller and two bowthrusters en- sure good maneuverability of the

Crown Odyssey. Additionally, she is fitted with Ross Industrie stabi- lizers which reduce her roll motion by 90 percent at a speed of 17.5 knots.

On board the Crown Odyssey there are a total of 11 public rooms including the "Seven Continents

Restaurant" on deck 6 which seats 640 persons. The other public spaces are situated on the Odyssey,

Lido and Horizon decks (7th, 8th and 11th decks). The Monte Carlo

Court, which is located on the Odys- sey Deck, includes a casino, bar and several boutiques. Forward of this area there is the Odyssey Show

Lounge with submergible stage and seating accommodation for 500 per- (continued)

Operational, maintenance and replacement requirements are essential for the product to perform as advertised.

Ullage, interface and temperature are all measured precisely in one tank penetration by this Flexi-Dip trimode gauging tape.

The restricted model shown here is for use in closed tanks (in conjunction with MMC vapor control valves) and provides a complete tank profile quickly, in one operation. It's also available in two double-function units (ullage/interface and ullage/temperature) and in a temperature-only version.

By matching the model to your requirements, you only invest in that which you need.

If open gauging is what you want, the Flexi-Dip series offers you the same single-, double-, and triple-function options.

All MMC gauges are dual-calibrated in feet/inches on one side and metric on the other, and are FM, BASEEFA and CSA approved as intrinsically safe.

Best of all, the MMC name stands for 30 years of reliability.

And there's simply no substitute for that kind of proven performance.
