Shaver Adds New

Twist To Fleet

Shaver Transportation Company has added an Aquamaster Z-drive to its new reverse-tractor hull, which is equipped to operate both as a ship-assist tug and river tow- boat. Measuring 91 x 36 ft. (28 x 11 m), Deschutes was designed by J.M.

Martinac Shipbuilding Corp.

Deschutes is a dual-purpose ves- sel featuring the power and maneu- verability required of a harbor tug working ships assists and the range and accommodations needed for extended river tows.

Power is provided by two Detroit

Diesel 16V-149TI-DDEC engines, each rated at 1,600 continuous horsepower at 1,755 rpm, driving two Aquamaster-Rauma US 2001, 360 rotatable right angle drives fit- ted with PV-duct nozzles.

Two Cummins 6CT8.3 diesel-elec- tric sets rated at 115 kW at 1,000 rpm provide onboard electrical power.

Deck equipment includes a

Markey 75-hp hydraulic hawser winch capable of storing 460 ft. (140 m) of 10-in. synthetic line, a single W.W. Patterson 40-ton elec- tric barge winch and six W.W.

Patterson 65-ton electrical winch- es.
