<BODY> <div> Sperry Marine's AWARD WINNING BRIDGE INTEGRATION Cost Effective! Sperry Marine's outstanding Integrated Bridge design has been acclaimed by the marine world as the winner of the 1990 "Seatrade Award for Cost/ Efficiency." This award recognizes the capability of our IBS to provide the watch officer all the information needed in a clear, concise, comprehensive format on a daylight-bright, full color display at the main conning station. This display, along with the award-winning Sperry Marine RASCAR radar/ ARPA, incorporates our unique touchscreen control, eliminating the usual forest of knobs, buttons and switches and greatly reducing the watch officer's workload. More accurate navigation is made possible through our precise Position Filter Modules. The result is optimal steering for additional savings of time and money. Safe! Safety is the most important consideration in our bridge designs. In every Sperry Marine configuration, from the first one-man bridge on the "Petrobulk Mars," to the many new tankers, containerships, ro-ros and passenger ferries fitted with Sperry Marine's Integrated Bridge Systems, vessel safety is the prime consideration. Our concern for safety has been recognized by the Seatrade Safety at Sea Award presented to Sperry Marine for its touchscreen control technology, the same technology used extensively in many of our integrated bridge equipments. Flexible! Designed to provide ultimate versatility to meet any operational need. The unique Navigation Workstation tailors all planning functions according to voyage requirements. Sperry Marine's SeaNET integrates all essential sen- sors to assure maximum usefulness. And Sperry Marine's Integrated Bridge design provides for the future, too. The exceptional flexibility of a Sperry Marine Bridge will readily accept additional sensor inputs whenever they are installed to meet future requirements. 1990 Seatrade Award for Cost/Efficiency SltiUKY MAKINM- [NO, For additional information on this and other Sperry Marine products contact: |annivers\r\ 1910 U'VO Sperry m Met rin e ^ Sperry Marine Inc. 1070 Seminole Trail Charlottesville, VA 22901 (804) 974-2000 Subsidiary of Newport News Shipbuilding A Tenneco Company Circle 210 on Reader Service Card </div> <span id="lblContents"></span> <br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.digitalwavepublishing.com/" title="Digital Magazine">Digital Wave Publishing</a> </BODY>
