No ship is too small...
to install an EVAC vacuum toilet system.
if you need an economical and reliable toilet
system for your ship (50 feet or longer),
choose EVAC. EVAC has two standard models:
Model 0111 — allows you to utilize your
ship's hull tank, and;
Model 1111 — includes our atmospheric
holding tank.
Both models have the same standard
design and components; therefore,
you do not pay for special design
engineering. You do receive high
quality components with a proven
history of reliability.
EVAC vacuum toilet systems
already exist in over 2,000 recirculating
ships worldwide. Model 0111 pump
and Model 1111, with one m§f
or two pumps, are avail-
able from stock to ex-
pedite delivery.

The U.S. Navy chose Seaward dock fenders
to protect Pier Zulu, in Charleston, S.C.This new
20 million dollar pier is the prototype of the
Navy's pier designs for the 1990's. Seaward's
fenders have also been installed on new
Navy berthing facilities in California,
Florida, Virginia, Iceland, and the Philip-
pines. These fenders are being included in
the design of new home port facilities and
are being used in the upgrading of Navy
docks around the world.
Seaward dock fenders are constructed
of a tough, snag-free elastomer coating. And
Seaward's closed-cell foam center has a very
high energy absorption capacity but a low reaction
force.These fenders provide stand-off and safely cushion the impact of approaching vessels, whether
they're tugboats or battleships. Yet Seaward dock fenders are as easy to install as they are rugged.
The U.S. Navy didn't settle for an ordinary fender to protect Pier Zulu. So why should you?
