| 摘要： | The SSP KAIMALINO, an 89 foot, 225 long ton Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull(SWATH) ship. is evaluated as a buoy tender platform, side by side with the USCGC MALLOW, a 180 foot, 1,025 long ton monohull buoy tender. Seakeeping comparisons are presented during runs underway in 10.4 and 4.3 foot significant wave heights at 8 and 12 knots respectively. The SWATH proved to have far superior seakeeping abilities compared to the conventional displacement hull buoy tender in the seaway. Buoy tending evaluations were simultaneously conducted in 4.3 foot significant wave heights. Vessel motions in roll and pitch are compared during slow speed (0-2 knots) buoy tending operations. A comparison of vessel maneuverability was accomplished by conducting Dieudonne spiral maneuvers as well as zig-zag (overshoot) tests at both 4 and 8 knot runs. Both vessels demonstrated good maneuvering control. These tests were a joint effort with the U.S. Navy. Navigation, leeway, station keeping and buoy tending evolutions were evaluated and presented in a separate companion report entitled, "Side-By-Side Buoy Tending Trials of the SWATH Ship SSP KAIMALINO and the USCG Cutter MALLOW (WLB-396)" by A.T. Strickland, published by the Naval Ocean Systems Center, San Diego, CA. |
