CAD/CAM/CAE winch mooring, winch anchor and win- dows. Hydrograph recently upgraded its PropExpert software to version 4.1. PropExpert is a software tool for the selection and analysis of propeller sys- tems for workboats and pleasure craft. New added features in version 4.1 include: e-mail, databases import and export, and a "cubic" prop curve. The addition of e-mail into PropExpert allows a user to send a formatted sum- mary report and/or technical appendix to clients and co-workers quickly and efficiently. This eliminates the need for printed reports, as a complete sizing analysis can simply be sent anywhere via e-mail. The import/export function- ality was included in version 4.1 to make data more accessible to PropEx- pert. Now, PropExpert is able to search through files of various types for infor- mation that can be used in a sizing analysis.

FOR AN from Spain's Sener has been chosen for one of the year's more tech- nically challenging jobs, the re-birth of the Philadelphia Shipyard. The decision by Kvaerner to sell all of its shipbuilding assets, the as-yet developed Philadel- phia yard included, notwithstanding, the FORAN system was chosen to be at the forefront of the yards entry into the commercial newbuild market. The FORAN package for Philadelphia is a comprehensive one, including fairing, outfitting design, outfitting production, electrical design and walk through. Yachting Consult of the Netherlands is an engineering company focusing on the yacht and shipbuilding industries, undertaking both software development and CAD/CAM engineering services. The company's MasterSHIP software is production oriented, and automates the building preparation stages. It is fully integrated with AutoCAD 14 and 2000 under WindowsNT, 95 and 98. The modules for automatic nesting, lofting, parametric drawing and NC cutting are found to be particularly useful in ship- yard applications. Surface Tools is the newest module in the MasterSHIP suite, and it is designed to speed up the CAD/CAM lofting process. A handy feature of the module: the projection mode to generate intersections with the hull surface for items such as bowthrusters and chin pipes.
