摘要: Roudebush Yacht & Engine Works, Dundalk, Md., delivered the 80'×l2'×5'6", 75-passenger fiberglass/ composite Georgetown Heritage Canal Boat to Georgetown Heritage, a group tasked with restoring and revitalizing the historic Chesapeake and Ohio (C&O) Canal that runs through Washington, D.C.'s historic Georgetown neighborhood. Designed by D.C.-based Tridentis, the Georgetown Heritage Canal Boat has a 1' draft and is built to be pulled along by two mules. Its propulsion package contains two electric Torqeedo 10 FP motors, sparking 5.6 kW of propulsive power at 1,400 rpm. The mains are connected to Torqeedo 1937-00, 12.6"×11" 5-bladed propellers. The package gives the boat a running speed of three knots. Six Torqeedo 48-5000 batteries provide service power. Christopher Addington, Tridentis' program manager for the project, said the intent of the design is to provide as close a replica to a 19th century canal workboat, right down to the mules (with electric motor backup). The overall goal is to update from the original 19th century design in order to reduce maintenance and comply with current regulations.
