FRIDAY EDITION

WorkBoat recognized its 10 Significant Boats of 2017

and named its Boat of Year, the Harvey Sub-Sea/Harvey Blue-Sea, at an awards ceremony at the International WorkBoat Show Thursday morning. The breakfast awards was spon-sored by Travelers.

The Harvey Sub-Sea/Harvey Blue-Sea were built at Eastern Shipbuilding Group for Harvey Gulf International Marine. Vard designed the vessels. The 340’×73’, 5,737-dwt multipurpose supply vessels (MPSVs).

While the two boat’s roles range from ROV support to marine construction to cable laying to subsea equipment in-stallation and support, the MPSVs were custom-tailored by Vard to fulfill its main mission: deepwater subsea support in the U.S. Gulf. Two launch-and-recov-ery systems (LARS) allow operation of ROVs up to 250 hp, ranging to depths of 4,000 meters. With so many systems at work, an integrated approach to monitor-ing and control is provided by the Wärt-silä electronics systems that coordinate power, maneuvering, and customer-sup-port operations. The vessel’s DP-2 sys-tem controls the machinery.

For main propulsion, there’s two Schottel SRP 3030 azimuthing fixed-

pitch-propeller (FPP) stern drives, pow-ered by variable frequency drive (VFD) motors, producing a total of 8,978 hp. There’s also three Schottel STT 5 fixed-pitch-propeller bow tunnel thrusters, powered by VFD motors, that produce a total of 6,035 hp. Four Wärtsilä 6L32 generators provide 12,680-kW of elec-trical power to the vessel’s 690-volt sys-tem. The power package gives the vessel a top speed of 14 knots and a cruising speed of 12 knots. The 250-ton National Oilwell Varco knuckle-boom crane on the afterdeck has the ability to work at depths of 13,000’.

“Every capacity, every capability, has to be larger to service the deepwater oilfield,” Chad Verret of Harvey Gulf said. “When your round trip is almost 500 miles, you need to carry everything necessary to install and support sea-floor

OSVs idled by the oil and gas slump may have a viable future as trailing

suction hopper dredges.Dredging is a sustained business with

growth potential in a number of areas including deepening port channels to ac-commodate new bigger Panama Canal ships, coastal restoration and hurricane recovery, Mark Masor, Gulf Coast op-erations manager, Gibbs & Cox Inc., said in presenting the idea at the Inter-national WorkBoat Show.

The active fleet includes 13 industry dredges and four Army Corps of Engi-neers oceangoing dredges, all with an average age of 32 years.

Among the benefits of conversion are that the OSVs are already classed and SOLAS certified, and they have robust hull forms, open working decks and configurations similar to dredges. Modi-fications are mainly to the center part of

the vessel, said Geoff Dean, business de-velopment manager, Offshore Ship De-signers. Dry bulk tanks would be taken out and replaced with dredge pumps. “The bulk of the deck is unaffected,” he said. And most PSVs have enough room in the wheelhouse for a dredging con-sole.

Their comparison model showed a new 8,250-cu.-yd. dredge would cost $105 million to build, deliver in three years, have annual operating costs of $10 million and a seven-and-a-half-year payback period. An OSV converted to a 2,500-cu.-yd. dredge would cost $15 million, deliver in one year, have annual operating costs of $7 million and a six-year payback period.

“Conversion is slightly more appeal-ing. For the business case, there’s good merit in it,” Masor said.

For U.S. shipyards, staying nimble means

meeting construction and technological challenges, diversifying and gauging vessel market demand.

They must “work around the fact that essentially ev-erything we do is one-off,” said Frank Foti, CEO of Vigor Industrial. He vis-ited a Japanese yard where “even the polite Japanese could not help but laugh at our costs.” They have critical mass building one thing. “It’s a completely different model. Their cost is way less, but their qual-ity is not better.”

Globally, “we are com-peting against yards that are backed by the govern-ment,” said Chris Vaccari, senior vice president, Gulf Island Ship-yards LLC. While costs compared to Europe are pretty close and Asian labor costs are rising, when it comes to qual-ity, U.S. yards do as good a job if not better.

While they’ve seen technological improvements in steel fabrication, “the challenge is more in the planning and

U.S. shipyards stay nimble in a changing market

engineering phase, because of the complexity of the ves-sels we’re building,” Vaccari said. “We’re going to have to reconsider some of the crafts we’ve outsourced and bring them back in.”

Vigor’s “looking for ways to use automation to make one-offs better,” Foti said.

Both yards are diversify-ing. Gulf Island, for example, is building jackets for wind-mills.

Vigor builds specialty cranes for Boeing to paint planes.

And both see demand for moving more people by boat. “The transportation sector is where a lot of our focus is and needs to be,” whether it’s cargo or people, Vaccari said. Wind farm construction also

is a promising long-term prospect. Would they consider building on spec?

“In most cases, no,” Foti said, but possi-bly with a long-term investor “who’s got a greater concern for the environment than how fast they’ll get their money back.”

“Been there, done that, wouldn’t do it again,” Vaccari said. — D.K. DuPont

The radar control units are operated by an integrated keypad and rotary dial with direct-access buttons located along the side of the display providing no-nonsense con-trol of on-screen menu options. This proven control system is extremely comforting in rough seas, while travelling at speed or when operating with gloves on.

ABS new app launched: NS Workboat

ABS Nautical Systems, the ABS enterprise fleet management soft-

ware suite, launched a new mobile appli-cation, NS Workboat. It is the latest in a line of new products and services developed by ABS to help workboat operators gain compliance with pending Subchapter M regulations for towing vessels.

The “app”, which leverages Nautical Systems enterprise software, is a mobile solution purpose-built for the workboat and inland-shipping sectors, where ease-of-use is of paramount importance.

With Subchapter M quickly approach-ing, ABS sees a rising demand for easy-to-use solutions designed with towing vessel crews in mind. NS Workboat is ABS’s response to that challenge. The simple interface is designed to support day-to-day, ‘walk-around’ tasks, allow-ing users to easily manage the process for meeting all Subchapter M require ments while simultaneously improving accu-racy of compliance reporting.

The U.S. Coast Guard wrote Sub-chapter M regulations in a way that gives owners multiple options to achieve com-pliance, recognizing the varied operating

environ ments for the 6,000-odd vessels affected, both classed and unclassed.

Regardless of how owners choose to comply with and manage this new regula tion, relevant data must be col-lected and new procedures implemented. In response, ABS is offering a wider and deeper portfolio of class-centric products and services, including supporting the regulation with ABS Nautical Systems software.

The NS Workboat application sup-ports all compliance options – delivered preconfigured with the user’s choice of the Sub M compliance options, includ-ing U.S. Coast Guard inspection. It is a cloud-based solution offered by sub-scription on iOS or Android operating systems. Deployment to the cloud helps to minimize the required IT investment.

Conrad handles vessel repair and conversions on the Gulf Coast

Marine vessels operating along the Gulf Coast and on the inland wa-

terways are vital to the nation’s com-merce. Conrad Shipyard plays an integral role in returning these vessels to service after repairs, conversions or required in-spections.

“It’s a team effort in this fast paced environment,” said Conrad Deepwater General Manager Peter Orlando. “We have scheduled repairs and conversions that often allow weeks or more to prepare for; however, about 25% of our business is emergency repairs — underwater gear damage, hull damage or mechanical is-sues. The time we have to prepare for those repairs is often measured in hours.

“It’s our job get these vessels, both scheduled and emergency repairs, back to work as soon as possible,” Orlando continued. “Our strength is an experi-enced team from top to bottom. Most of our project managers and supervisors have been with Conrad for over 10 years and our workforce is exceptional.”

The Conrad team has expansive fa-cilities, multiple drydocks, and heavy-lift cranes in their arsenal of tools to meet

customer requirements. With a large number of repairs each

month, scheduling can be a delicate bal-ancing act. “Communication with our customer is critical to ensuring a success-ful project,” said Lynn Falgout, Conrad’s vice president Amelia operations. “Our customers have contractual obligations to meet with these vessels, and we do every-thing possible to meet their needs.”

Conrad Shipyard performs quality re-pairs and conversions at its Orange, Tex-as, shipyard and its Deepwater Repair facility located in Amelia, La.

Duramax Marine unveils new keel cooler design and Durablue composite rudder bushing

Duramax Marine has engineered a unique keel cooler design that will

make a big splash at the 2017 Interna-tional WorkBoat Show. Duramax says it is the most efficient DuraCooler keel cooler ever built. It can deliver more than double the cooling efficiency of their ex-isting DuraCooler in half the hull space.

This cooler will be the newest addi-tion to the Duramax Marine® long line of custom engineered heat exchanger so-lutions, and the best answer for the ma-rine industry’s ever increasing cooling requirements due to the introduction of Tier 4 engine designs.

The Duramax self lubricating, pollu-tion-free DuraBlue Composite Rudder Bushing will also be previewed at the company’s booth 1901. This extremely low friction bearing can be used for rud-der stocks, pintles, steering gear bushings and thrust washers.

It is designed to outperform competi-tive bearings with a low coefficient of

friction value of 0.1 to 0.2. Its proprietary fiber matrix is exceptionally wear resis-tant with a very low thermal coefficient of expansion. DuraBlue has full ABS type approval.

Duramax Marine now offers the larg-est inventory of self-lubricating rudder bushings in the U.S. in our warehouse in Harahan, La. Available in diameters from 1” to 42” (2.5 – 107 cm).

Metal Shark announces two new pilot boat contracts for 2018 delivery

Louisiana-based shipbuilder Metal Shark has set its sights on the pilot

boat market with a range of custom-configurable offerings and two new pilot boats currently under construction.

At its 25-acre shipyard in Franklin, La., Metal Shark is building a 45-foot Defiant pilot boat for the Virgin Islands Port Authority, and also a 64-foot Defiant pilot boat for the Brazos Pilots Associa-tion in Freeport ,Texas. Both vessels will be delivered in 2018.

The next-generation pilot boats were designed by Metal Shark’s in-house de-sign team and combine proven running surfaces with modern, crew-friendly, pilot-focused features including flush decks, pilot boarding platforms, and Met-al Shark’s signature “pillarless glass,” pi-lothouses, which offer greatly improved visibility by drastically reducing blind spots – a key concern for pilots who op-erate around the clock.

“Metal Shark has built and delivered over 500 boats in the past three years alone,” said the company’s director of commercial sales, Carl Wegener. “We have an enviable track record of on-time, high quality deliveries to our mili-

tary, government, and passenger vessel customers. Today we’re bringing Metal Shark’s military-honed quality to pilots, too.”

Defiant-class pilot boats may be com-pletely custom configured, from the type and location of platforms and rails, to various propulsion types and fendering systems, in order to fully address the unique challenges and demands of each pilot group’s operating environment.

Established in 1986, Gravois Alumi-num Boats LLC, and its government/commercial boat entity Metal Shark are leading suppliers of custom boats for de-fense, law enforcement, and commercial entities. Visit Metal Shark at booth 3480.

Duramax Marine DuraBlue,a composite rudder bushingengineered for high performance

Duramax Marine DuraBlue is a pol-lution-free, self-lubricating rudder

bushing designed to outperform tradi-tional bushing materials. DuraBlue pro-prietary composite matrix is exception-ally wear resistant, with extremely long wear life, and high load capacity. DuraB-lue ultra-low coefficient of friction of 0.1 to 0.2 eliminates stick slip.

DuraBlue is used for rudder stocks, pintles and steering gear bushings. It is an alternative to bronze, brass, nylon and other urethane based materials.

DuraBlue is dimensionally stable. It has a very low thermal coefficient of ex-pansion in high and low temperature en-vironments. Unlike polyurethane rudder bushings that have a wide range of ther-mal expansion and contraction rate. Du-raBlue experiences negligible swelling in water, and remains stable in chemical solutions.

DuraBlue is tolerant to load edging and misalignments. Its composite structure is light weight and resists damage and fracture. It maintains a high compression strength, and a high strength to weight ratio.

Duramax DuraBlue Composite Rudder Bushings are available in outside diam-eters: 1" to 42" (2.5 – 107cm). They are easy to machine and install and have full ABS type ppproval.

Duramax Marine is a leader in water-lubricated bearing technology, along with engineered heat exchangers, shaft sealing, and impact protection systems.

Cummins Inc. announced recently its new U.S. Environmental Protection

Agency Tier 4 solution for its marine QSK38 engine with cleaner emissions and improved warranty.

The QSK38 is being paired with the industry-leading Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system designed and manufactured by Cummins Emission Solutions. Engines will be available in 2019 for marine customers operating in the U.S. offshore oil and gas, commercial transport, passenger transport and com-mercial fishing industries.

Cummins engines have used SCR technology since 2006 and there are now more than one million units in the field. The QSK38 with the Cummins aftertreat-ment will be on display during the 2017 International WorkBoat Show, Nov. 29 through Dec. 1.

“Cummins mission is about making lives better by powering a more pros-perous world and that means improving the environment and delivering the best products that our customers can rely on for work and play,” said Jim Schacht, executive director, Cummins Global Ma-rine Business.

“We know marine customers want the best value, quality and environmentally-friendly power solutions and that is what Cummins is firmly focused on bringing

to them. We are thrilled to bring a proven technology to the marine market that em-bodies our mission and values. We have more than 10 years of experience inte-grating SCR technology in both on-high-way and off-highway equipment, which enable this clean and efficient technology to be brought to our customers seam-lessly.”

Cummins new Tier 4 marine QSK38 engine comes with detailed installation directions and flexible SCR arrange-ments, which removes complexity while saving time and reducing costs on every project. Sensors located in the SCR can monitor the system performance, en-abling precise injections of urea to neu-tralize the emissions. By monitoring the data and appropriately injecting urea, Cummins system ensures there is no waste, contributing another cost savings for the customer.

Warranty terms for Cummins marine engines have recently seen an increase in coverage periods. These periods vary de-pending on the engine family and rating. The base warranty for marine engines 19 to 60 liters in a heavy-duty or medium continuous-duty rating has been extend-ed 1,000 hours beyond the previous term, while intermittent-duty coverage for the same engine range has extended 1,500 additional hours. The calendar restriction

MK Products and push-pull technology

MK Products is the inventor of Co-bramatic push-pull wire feed tech-

nology and is recognized worldwide as the leader of aluminum welding systems.

In aluminum welding and fabrication, push-pull welding systems have reinvent-ed the industry by providing new capabil-ities with aluminum that were not before possible. Behind this groundbreaking innovation over 50 years ago, were the people of MK Products.

From humble beginnings, MK Prod-ucts began by first introducing the con-cept of push-pull welding, then manufac-turing the first push-pull system, known as Cobramatic.

Through the years, MK’s Cobramat-ic systems have become the standard in aluminum push-pull welding, MK said. The systems also weld steel, stainless steel, flux core, and more. MK Products continues to evolve with technological advances as it grows and expands its

products line. In addition to its standard line of MIG equipment, MK products has branched out to offer digitally controlled guns and power supplies, spool guns, turntables and full orbital welding sys-tems. Family owned and operated since 1966, all of our products are made in the U.S.

Vane takes delivery of Bristol Harbor Group-designed ATB oil barge

Bristol Harbor Group Inc. (BHGI) is pleased to an-nounce that the Vane Brothers Company has taken

delivery of a BHGI-designed, 403’x74’x32’, 85,000-bbl. ATB oil barge. It is the first of three sister vessels built for Vane Brothers by Conrad Shipyard. BHGI was con-tracted by Conrad Shipyard to develop the class design package in 2015. The barge is certified by the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) for oceans-fully manned trade.

The barge is designed to transport heavy oil products. It is equipped with a complete loading and discharging system in 10 tank compartments and includes a cargo thermal heating system with over 7,000 lineal feet of heating coil pipe. A thermal stress analysis, in accor-dance with ABS requirements, was developed to ensure

hull structural stresses were acceptable. BHGI is a full-service naval architecture and marine

engineering company located on the harbor in Bristol, R.I. We have been in business for more than 20 years, and have produced more than one hundred designs to which hundreds of vessels have been built.

Yank Marine Services expands Dorchester facility with delivery of new Marine Travelift 820-ton mobile boat hoist

Yank Marine Services too delivery recently of a new 820-metric-ton capacity Marine Travelift boat hoist

at its Dorchester, N.J., location along the Maurice River. The new expansion project put in place will target a brand new market of vessels in addition to creating new jobs in the Cumberland County, N.J., area.

Established in 1969 by John C. Yank Jr., Yank Marine has continued to build its reputation by servicing and re-pairing thousands of boats throughout eastern New Jer-sey. From new vessel construction to on-site naval archi-tecture and engineering, John and his staff have worked diligently over the years to expand services and optimize yard space to continue its growth along the east coast.

“The addition of the 820 C at the Dorchester location will help to free up space at our Tuckahoe location which is often at capacity,” said Bette Jean Yank, owner of Yank Marine Services. “It will also mean a great deal to our customers to allow them the choice of location for ser-vice.”

While the 820-ton lift will allow Yank Marine to con-tinue its current service operations, it will also open up new doors in its service portfolio ensuring capabilities necessary for tugboats, commercial fishing boats, barges, passenger ferries, as well as larger classes of both U.S. Army and U.S. Coast Guard vessels stationed on the East Coast.

“Access by vessels needing service at the Tuckahoe lo-cation has always been limited by both the vertical height restrictions of the bridges of the Great Egg Harbor Bay and the water depth of the Tuckahoe River,” said Yank. “This new expansion project at Dorchester will allow us to bring in much heavier and taller vessels that were pre-viously unable to get to our facilities.”

The installation of the new 820 lift will not only be an asset to the marine industry in and around New Jersey, it will also help to stimulate the local economy by creat-ing 30-50 full time year round positions in the Maurice River Township of Cumberland County.

Yank Marine purchased their first boat hoist over 20 years ago and continues to call on Marine Travelift for their boat handling needs. The 820 C joins a long list of existing Marine Travelift units owned by Yank Marine, includ-ing a 50 BFM (50-ton capac-ity) at the Dorchester facility, as well as a 300CII (300-ton capacity), 200C (200-ton ca-pacity), and 75 BFMII (75-ton capacity) at their Tuckahoe fa-cility.

Marine Travelift’s knowl-edge and experience in the in-

dustry, along with their dedication to quality and custom-er service, are just a few of the many company traits that foster repeat business from some of the most respected yards in the business.

For more information about Marine Travelift and its full range of mobile boat hoists, forklifts, and transport-ers, call 920-743-6202, email the sales team at [email protected] or visit www.marinetravelift.com.

The world’s first mobile boat hoist was manufactured in Sturgeon Bay, Wis., in 1945. Officially established in

1954, Marine Travelift has a long-standing reputation as a marine indus-try leader and is recognized for its tra-dition of excellence on a global scale. The company manufactures mobile boat hoists, marine forklifts, self-pro-pelled transporters and other related marine lifting products. It also has an extensive U.S. and international dealer network, with more than 3,500 units in service worldwide.

Metal Shark’s booth has been

buzzing with curious International Work-Boat Show attendees. The south Louisiana yard has three boats at the show — a 29’ Defiant class, a 38’ Defiant class and the yard’s 24’ Swamp Shark.

The 31’9”x8’5”x4’5” 29’ Defiant emergency response (USCG Re-sponse Boat-Small) vessel is powered by Honda BF225 outboards, produc-ing 225 hp at 5,500 rpm.

The 38’ Defiant class measures 38’x11’9” with a draft of 2’6” and is powered by a pair of Cummins QSB6.7, creating 542 hp at 3,300

rpm each. That boat was built for the Dutch Caribbean Coast Guard.

The 24’x8” Swamp Shark is a pro-totype military amphibious riverine patrol boat. It’s powered by Yanmar 8LV-370 4.460L V8 outboards, pro-ducing 370 hp at 3,800 rpm. There is also a Sealegs amphibious propulsion system.

The 2284VWB measures 20’x8’6” with a deadrise of 12°, 7’ (1/4” 5086) bottom, 35” (3/16” 5086) sides, 3” Bulb T-Beam frames, 14” center frame spacing, verti-cal flange plate longitudinal, 1/8” tread plate gunnel inside, 3” D Rubber gunnel outside, 1/8” tread plate deck, 1/8” tread plate double bottom, twin 250-hp out-boards, and a fuel capacity of 80 gals.

The 26’4”x8’6” 2684LC has a 6° deadrise, 7’ (1/4” 5086) bottom, 35” (3/16” 5086) sides, 3” Bulb T Beam

frames, 14” center frame spacing, vertical flange plate longitudinal, 3/16” tread plate gunnel inside, 3” D Rubber gunnel, 64” clear opening outside, 3/16” tread plate gate, twin 350-hp outboards, with an 80 gal. horsepower rating.

SCULLYSCULLY’S BRINGS TWO BOAT MODELS TO THIS YEAR’S INTERNATIONAL WORKBOAT SHOW

Brunswick Com-mercial and

Government Products brought to the floor of this year’s International WorkBoat Show its 26’2”x10’ 850 Impact D-Collar multipurpose boat and its 28’ Justice model patrol boat.

Among the 850 Impact Collar vessel’s features are a hybrid air/foam-filled collar mounted to a solid fiberglass gunnel instead of a fully circular tube. The boat’s Impact D collar allows for more space on deck and added maneuverability and versatil-ity for the crew. The D-Collar is designed to give customers the best characteristics of a standard fiber-glass hull with the benefits of a RIB.

The Justice offers customers a deep V hull and center console design making it well suited for offshore patrols, Brunswick officials said. Whether navigating high-traffic areas or plowing through waves, the Justice series of boats shines in less than ideal conditions because of its higher free board and pronounced chine translating into a softer, drier ride.
