Florida 32211 An Equal Opportunity Employer Waukesha's four families of marine diesels. Power ratings cbver the range 78 to 1,700 horsepower. Briefly, the basic engine families listed are: The VHP series, V12 and in- line 6-cylinder diesels; heavy duty big-bore units developing high torque for main propulsion appli- cations or for electrical service power on the larger vessels. The V.C series, V16, V12 and V8 diesels; compact high-speed murine units that offer high per- formance in the mid-size range for both propulsion and ship's service duty. The VS series, V8 an'd 6-cylinder diesels; lightweight high-speed en- gines offering an attractive combi- nation of performance and economy for work boats or pleasure boats. The VR series of 6-cylinder die- sels offering proven work boat de- pendability. Also covered are Waukesha En- YOU'LL /KOBABCf M0IKEH& AfHRENGL Federal Propeller's 4- blade 'Power Thrust." In- stall it instead of a 3-blade. The result is greater power, smoother operation. Which means better handling and maneuvering. Reduced engine wear. Better fuel economy. And that's not all..."Power Thrust" was heavy-duty designed with heavy blade edges to resist damage. So costly repairs...haul out and downtime are vastly reduced. Available through 96" in Federal's "3" Bronze, orsupertough Ni-Bral, also in Stainless Steel through 40" diameter. Get a "Power Thrust." You'll notice the difference. See your marine dealer or contact Federal Propellers, Grand Rapids, Michigan 49502. FEDERAL PROPELLERS ginatorĀ®, diesel-powered generator sets in both 50-hz and 60-hz ver- sions and power ratings up to 1,000 kw (1,200-kw emergency rating). The Waukesha marine gas turbine, developing up to 485 hp from a surprisingly small package, is also shown. All units listed are illus- trated, together with many color views of modern vessels using Waukesha power. Dimensioned clearance diagrams, performance curves and tabular power ratings are given for all engines. Finally, a comprehensive table of compara- tive design data for naval architects and marine engineers is included. This features no less than 62 use- ful design factors.

Captain Dunford was graduated from the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, Md., in 1939 and received his master of science degree from the Massachu- setts Institute of Technology in 1944. His engineering assignments with the Navy included a long as- sociation with nuclear submarine and surface ship propulsion, start- ing with the design of the USS Nautilus. After retirement, he con- tinued his work in nuclear plants with the New York Shipbuilding Corp., managing the nuclear work at that yard in submarine and sur- face nuclear powered ships. Cap- tain Dunford comes to CDI direct- ly from his most recent position as the technical director of the Na- val Air Engineering Center in Philadelphia, Pa. Kaiser Steel To Build Sedco Semisubmersible Sedco, Inc. awarded a contract to the Kaiser Steel Corporation for construction of the Sedco 706, a semisubmersible drilling unit which is expected to be delivered in the fall of 1975 iat a cost in excess of $35 million. 36 Maritime Reporter/Engineering News
