Goudy And Stevens

Delivers Oil Skimmer

To Puget Sound Group

Goudy and Stevens recently de- livered the 123-foot oil skimmer,

Shearwater, to the Clean Sound

Cooperative located on Puget Sound.

The vessel was designed by JBF

Scientific and is powered by two 906 hp Caterpillar diesels. An Air-Flex power take-off on the front of each engine drives three pumps which provide hydraulic power for the vessel's oil spill recovery system.

Hydraulic power for deck equipment is provided by electric pumps when the main engines are not being used.

A four-ton hydraulic boom is used for launching and retrieving two aluminum boom boats.

The bow opens at the waterline and folds back against the hull to expose the oil/water processing sys- tem.

According to Clean Sound the new vessel's recovery rate doubles the cooperative's oil spill clean-up capacity.
