| 摘要： | Metal Shark's Bayou La Batre, Ala., shipyard recently delivered its third 120-by 35-foot river towboat to Florida Marine Transporters Inc. (FMT) of Mandeville, La. The four-decked, welded-steel, Sub-chapter M-compliant towboat Gianna Hull was designed by John W. Gilbert Associates Inc. The vessel's twin Cat marine diesel engines deliver 2,000 hp. each and turn 100- by 69-inch stainless steel propellers through Twin Disc reverse reduction gears with a 6.56:1 ratio. Sleeping accommodations and facilities have been provided for a nine-person crew. The new towboat is the third delivery in a three-vessel contract with FMT announced in late 2018, following Metal Shark's acquisition of the assets of Horizon Shipbuilding earlier that year. With the purchase, Metal Shark, best known as a builder of welded aluminum vessels, assumed ownership of a fully developed Alabama shipyard and began its expansion into steel shipbuilding, refit and repair. |
