Two Singapore Yards

Team On Repairs To

Tanker Maersk Navigator

Two Singapore-listed yards are joining forces to repair the crude oil supertanker Maersk Navigator which was damaged in a mishap in the Straits of Malacca in January.

The 20-million-Singapore-dollar ($12.1 million) contract will be car- ried out jointly by Hitachi Zosen

Singapore, Ltd., a subsidiary of

Japan's Hitachi Zosen Corp., and

Jurong Shipyard, Ltd. This is the first time that the two yards have worked together on securing a major repair job.

The 255,312-dwt Danish super- tanker was severely damaged in a collision on January 21 with a smaller tanker, the Sanko Honor.

According to Hitachi Zosen, the job involves substantial steel renewal of two of the Maersk Navigator's tanks and a complete renewal of its accommodation superstructure.

The vessel arrived at Hitachi

Zosen's yard last month and the whole project is scheduled to take about five months to complete.

After Hitachi completes repairs to the tanker's hull and tanks, it will then be moved to Jurong Ship- yard for installation of the accom- modation superstructure under its part of the repair contract. The

Sanko Harbor is Now in Jurong's yard for repairs contracted for ap- proximately $3.6 million.

Two new 6.8 L diesels join the growing line of John Deere marine engines.

The naturally-aspirated 6068DFM deli- vers 130 horsepower, and the turbocharged 6068TFM produces 175 horsepower.

Like all John Deere engines, these quiet, smooth-running, 6-cylinder in-line diesels are loaded with features that will help keep your boat on the water.

One-piece blocks with seven main bear- ings, dynamically-balanced hardened crank- shafts, individually replaceable wet cylinder liners, and same-side service points provide reliable performance and simple maintenance.

Check the chart below for brief specs on all five of our engines, then contact your John Deere engine distributor for details. Or call Deere Power Systems, 319/292-6060. FAX: 319/292-5075.
