vessels and oceangoing tugs. The units are touted as suitable for any vessel in need of advanced wheel- house electronics, but lacking the space to accommodate a conven- tional integrated bridge system.

Also, an addition to the Racal-Decca range of BridgeMaster radars will also be launched in Hamburg. The new 250 ARPA radar has been de- veloped to offer all of the most ad- vanced BridgeMaster features in a compact unit with a 12-in. screen.

Lips To Tout All Around

Propulsion Solutions

LIPS, with a reputation as a top propeller manufacturer, will em- phasize its role as an all around propulsion specialist at SMM '94.

Lips' involvement with waterjets goes back to 1985 as partner in the joint venture with RivaLips until 1993. Since the establishment of

Lips Jets BV in Drunen last year, the waterjets are fully engineered and manufactured under the Lips flag in The Netherlands. The Lips heavy duty waterjet has been proven: 10 wave-piercing catama- ran car/passenger ferries, all equipped with Lips waterjets, are being employed 24 hours a day in different waters around the world.

The Lips line also includes: monobloc propellers of any diam- eter; controllable pitch propellers of up to as large as a ship can demand; and bowthrusters as well as azimuthing thruster.

HydroComp, HSVA GmbH

Announce Alliance

HYDROCOMP, INC. and

Hamburgische Schiffbau-

Versuchsanstalt (HSVA) recently announced a cooperative relation- ship, with the shared principal goal to create the industry's most com- prehensive source for performance prediction solutions through the mutual representation of products and services.

HydroComp, Inc., known for its

NavCad resistance and propulsion software, is a leader in applied hy- drodynamics for early-stage design.

It is supplying HSVA with advanced copies of the NavCad software for commercial use and cooperative technical development, and is rep- resenting HSVA analytical services to clients.

HSVA expects this new relation- ship to provide NavCad users world- wide with increased access to

HSVA's services and expertise.

HSVA has been among the world's leading towing tanks since its found- ing in 1913. It incorporates modern experimental capabilities with nu- merical methods to provide solu- tions to problems in ship hydrody- namics, propeller design and ice technology.

MWH To Focus On Service As

Well As Products

Markisches Werk Halver GmbH (MWH), viewing SMM as one of the most important shipping shows in the world, has traditionally geared its exhibit around displays of its well- known product line encompassing engine components.

This year however, according to

Wolfgang Boddecker, MWH will display none of its parts, and in- stead use it stand in Hall 7 as a communications center/reception area to meet, greet and discuss busi- ness with customers and potential customers.

Mr. Boddecker assesses busi- ness in 1994 — to date — as up compared to 1993. Looking beyond this year, he views MWH's role as changing from an engine compo- nent product supplier to a product and service supplier. He noted that just 10 years ago, MWH manufac- tured components to manufacturer's specifications. Today, however,

MWH has evolved to more of a busi- ness partner. It is more common for an engine manufacturer to look to

MWH as the expert, and to expect

MWH to provide proposals.
