For further information call: ROBERT WEISS (212) 221-8080 (914) 337-4426 24 W. 39th STREET NY, NY 10018 Seaward International, Inc. has recently sup- plied two large fleet mooring buoys to the U.S. Navy. These 11-foot-diameter buoys were in- stalled in approximately 300 feet of water off the island of Tinian, by the Chesapeake Division of the Naval Facilities Engineering Command and its prime contractor, VSE Corporation. Tinian, the scene of a famous World War II battle, is located about 100 miles north of Guam in the Mariana Group of Pacific islands. It now serves as a home port base for several of the Navy's preposition ships, forming part of the rapid deployment strategy. These ships are loaded with food, fuel, vehicles and other mate- rial required to support military operations. Each buoy provides over 33,000 pounds of buoyancy and is capable of sustaining a mooring load of more than 150 tons. Seaward has worked with Navfac to pioneer the development of resil- ient foam-filled mooring buoys for fleet moor- ings. These buoys have a number of advantages over the traditional steel mooring buoys. These include lighter weight, lower maintenance and the ability to sustain collisions without damage to the buoy or vessel. Seaward has worked closely with the U.S. Navy for many years, providing dock and ship- board fenders, buoys and specialized coatings.

The customer, Delma Co-op Society, is a service and repair facility for oceangoing tugs and fish trawlers in Abu Dhabi. The 500BFM is capable of hauling a wide variety of sizes and shapes of boats and modules weighing up to 500 tons. Marina and shipbuild- ing operators will experience a substantial sav- ings in time, labor and storage space and save the high cost of conventional immobile haulout installations used by most of the existing larger repair yards. Delma Co-op now has the expertise to repair and build a large range of boats—from 27-foot-wide boats to 45-foot-wide barges. A large diesel engine provides all hydraulic power for two-speed travel and hoisting. It has travel speeds to 50 feet per minute. Six hydrau- lic-powered individual hoist drums provide sep- arate or simultaneous hoisting for leveling and lifting the boat in the slings.
