MonArk Boat Builds Buoy Tending Barge For Corps Of Engineers A MonArk model 4014 barge has been purchased by the Savan- nah (Georgia) District of Engi- neers from the MonArk Boat Com- pany, Monticello, Ark. The boat was designed and con- structed especially for the Corps of Engineers for use in tending more than 600 buoys on Lake Hartwell. It is also capable of transporting a fire plow and tractor, plus other maintenance equipment. The 4014 features lightweight aluminum hull design, a remova- ble cabin for low bridge clearance, davits for setting and maintaining buoys, and twin 6V53 Detroit Die- sel Engines. MonArk produces a wide variety of stock and custom-designed alu- minum hull workboats which are in use worldwide.

The contract includes deliv- ery of five heavy fuel diesel engines of the Wartsila Vasa 32 type. The new Sonat rig will be equipped with four twelve-cylin- der Vasa 32 generating sets with a total output of 23,400 bhp and one six-cylinder 2,690-bhp emer- gency unit of the same engine type. The engine choice was based on extensive analyses to deter- mine maximum operational flexi- bility, safety and economy in any environment. The Wartsila Vasa 32 engine represents a new gener- ation of diesel engines designed and developed from the outset to operate on low quality heavy fuel. The four-stroke engine is, with- out any load limitations, capable of burning low-quality heavy fuel with substantial impurities and a viscosity up to 700 cSt at 50°C. The heavy fuel capability in com- bination with unique design fea- tures give the engine especially good fuel consumption rates as well as superior overall economy. The Vasa 32 engine is manufac- tured in both in-line and V-form designs in seven different cylinder versions ranging in output from 2,010 to 9,180 bhp at 720-800 rpm.
