ASHLEY ALYSE
MCCALL
Gulf Craft
Circle 72 on Reader Service Card
The Ashley Alyse McCall is a 160-
foot by 30-foot aluminum crewboat
from Gulf Craft, Inc.
The crewboat features both for-
ward and aft steering stations in the
pilothouse, which offers 360 degree
visibility.
Powered with six Cummins model
KT-19M diesel engines that gener-
ate 680 hp each at 2,100 rpm, the
engines propel the vessel to a top
speed of 24 knots.
Each engine is turning a 40-inch
diameter propeller through a Twin
Disc MG 518 reverse and reduction
gear, with a reduction ratio of 2.5:1.
The vessel owner believes that
the redundancy of the six engines
has helped to eliminate the down
time problems which are usually
associated with an engine failure.
These vessels are capable of oper-
ating with one or two engines out,
and with four rudders, maneuver-
ing around the platform is no prob-
lem in the event of the loss of those
engines.
The boat has the speed and ca-
pacity to service larger areas in the
Gulf of Mexico, a condition existing
because of the consolidation of oil
company marine bases.
The vessel has USCG approval
for 101 passengers and a deck cargo
capacity of 180 long tons on its after
deck.
In addition to deck cargo, the ves-
sel is capable of offloading 43,000
gallons of water and 13,000 gallons
of fuel oil, plus it has firefighting
ability with its 600 gallon per minute
fire pump and deck-mounted fire
monitor.
Crew space power is provided by
two 50 kW Detroit Diesel 4-71 diesel
generators.
