Circle 44 on Reader Service Card Blount Industries, Inc. of War- ren, R.I., delivered the small cruise boat the Mayan Prince to American Canadian Caribbean Line, Inc. The vessel measures 175-feetlong by 39-feet wide, and has a draft of 6.5 feet. It accommodates 99 passengers and 18 crew members in 47 cabins, and will operate cruises during the summer months to Canada, and cruises in the fall and winter to Florida via the Atlantic Intercoastal Waterway and then operate seg- mented cruises through the Baha- mas and Eastern Caribbean to South America. The boat, which is USCG certi- fied for 99 passengers on near coastal routes, is powered by a Cummins KTA-19m main engine driving Twin Disc MG-518, 3:1 reduction gears. The Mayan Prince carries a Solas certificate and ABS International loadline for its international routes. The vessel is designed to serve the small ship cruise public in the U.S. and Canada, and because of its shal- low draft is capable of stopping at small villages as well as larger ports. Its superstructure can be lowered to navigate through low bridges and canals. The Mayan Prince also features a bow ramp for landing directly on beaches. Aside from the main engine, Cum- mins also supplied: four Onan, 95- kW generators, two used for ship power, and one each for nighttime and emergency use; and a 100-hp bowthruster engine to drive the Arc- turus, 28-inch diameter bowthruster from American Bow Thruster. Electronics equipment on board includes Furuno model 1830 radar, LC-90 MK II loran and 208 A weather fax; Si-tex 77P GPS; ICOM M-120 VHF radio and M-700 SSB radio; two Datamarine 3000 depthsounders; and a Satfind 406 M3 EPIRB. Coatings were provided by Inter- national Paint and Sherwin Wil- liams.

GREATLAND Trinity Marine Group Circle 148 on Reader Service Card The Greatland, a whale watch boat delivered in May by Trinity Marine Group—Aluminum Boats, Inc., measures 89 feet long, with a 24-foot beam and a 5.5-foot draft. The boat is powered by a pair of Detroit 12V92TA diesel engines, which together generate 1,800 hp. The pair of Detroit diesels drive two ZF reduction gears, which turn two, four-blade Magnesium propel- lers. Hynautic supplied engine controls and PSO-2200 steering controls. Two Northern Lights generator engines, outputting 33 kW and 12 kW respectively, help provide elec- trical power onboard. Deck machinery includes a 16- inch Kolstrand anchor windlass. The boat is guided by a Danforth "Constellation 5" compass. The own- ers furnished their own radios, ra- dar and loran. Three pumps onboard include two bilge pumps, one from Crown Elec- tric and one from Jabsco Belt Driven, and one Sears Jet Type potable wa- ter pump. Additional equipment on the Greatland whale watch passenger vessel includes Sealand Model 510 toilets and a Forfjord, 100-pound anchor.

Circle 45 on Reader Service Card The 287-foot, 1,500-passenger President Casino Mississippi, built by Leevac Shipyards, Inc. of Jennings, La., and designed by DeJong and Lebet of Jacksonville, Fla., is actually two vessels. The forward 194 feet is a U.S. Coast Guard certified subchapter H passenger barge. With the excep- tion of the Schottel bowthruster, the emergency generator and some elec- tric motor driven pumps, there is basically no vessel machinery lo- cated in the forward section. The after 93-feet of The President Casino Mississippi is an uninspected power unit, which contains the main propulsion unit consisting of two Caterpillar 3508 diesel engines ca- pable of generating 1,550 hp; and three Caterpillar generators. The two units are mated together using two 60-ton deck winches, which form a 287-foot vessel. The Caterpillar engines drive Twin Disc MG530 4.94:1 reduction gears. Engine controls were sup- plied by Rexroth, with steering con- trols by Custom Hydraulics. The imitation paddlewheels on each side of the "barge" unit are arranged such that the separation between the two units is not appar- ent to the average observer and, in fact, most patrons are totally un- aware that there are two parts to this vessel. The reported advantage of hav- ing this two-part unit, versus a single-piece vessel, is that normal shipboard vibration and noise is vir- tually eliminated in the passenger (casino) area. Also, in the event of wheel or rudder damage, in less than five minutes the electrical, air and water connections between the two units can be disconnected, the lock- up cables disconnected, and the power unit alone can be drydocked, making it easier to find a drydock capable of handling a 93-foot long unit versus a 287-foot unit. The 93-foot power unit houses all of the accounting, count rooms, sur- veillance, monitoring, state police IS A COOLING PROBLEM MAKING YOUR CRUISE PASSENGERS HOT UNDER THE COLLAR?
