摘要: Drave Corp. recently launched the 5,600-hp towboat Sunflower into the Ohio River at its Neville Island shipyard near Pittsburgh. Owned by Flowers Transportation Inc., Greenville, Miss., the Sunflower will be used in grain trade on the Mississippi River from Cairo, Ill., to New Orleans. The vessel is 140'×42' and capable of tows carrying 25,000 tons or more. The Sunflower is the fifth of Dravo's Viking-class of towboats to be launched this year. The Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors, in announcing its findings on three studies on deepwater ports for the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts, concluded that such facilities are feasible - but at the same time did not recommend federal construction. The facilities will be used to accommodate very large crude oil carriers.
