The quality line of Marine Refrigerators
specified for ships everywhere, come from
FRIGITEMP. Maybe it's because Frigitemp
does the whole job. We call it "total respon-
sibility". You'll call it a load off your mind.
Frigitemp know-how begins with refriger-
ation engineering personnel who help you
and your architect select equipment and
prepare specifications. And it follows
straight through to working with experi-
enced galley equipment dealers.
If there is a new ship in your future, take

temp Marine Refrigeration equipment . . .

Despite the best features
of your work boat, it's what's
out back that counts. Your
propeller. The one thing that
must transform hull design,
construction and power plant
characteristics into perfor-
mance. Federal takes a power-
ful interest in supplying the
most efficient props possible.
Federal's famous "Power
Thrust'' is designed to increase
power and offers excellent
maneuvering and handling char-
acteristics, smoother operation,
reduced engine wear and greater
fuel economy. The heavy duty
construction of this exceptional
propeller was engineered for
cutting through mud and debris
without damage. Costly haul
outs and downtime are practically
eliminated, especially if you
order your "Power Thrust" in
super strong Ni-Bral. Available
in Federal Bronze through 96*
diameter and Stainless Steel
through 80'.
You'll get "back power" and
economy of operation you
wouldn't believe possible when
you install "Power Thrust." See
your dealer or contact Federal
Propellers, Grand Rapids,
Michigan 49502.
