An Azimuthing Stern Drive (ASD) tug or towboat is a high-performance vessel that is responsive, quick to maneuver and extremely powerful. In the hands of a skilled operator maneuvering these vessels looks effortless and seamless--smoothly spinning around, nimbly shifting position, having pinpoint control, all while the operator's hands move the control handles instinctively and naturally. This book takes the reader through an efficient learning sequence leading to that level of proficiency. d104, illustrations and practice drills create a clear understanding of ASD maneuvering principles and assist the reader in acquiring the intuitive hands-on feel required to operate these vessels. Each chapter covers a basic maneuvering element--steering, managing speed, stopping, hovering, lateral movement--and their application to light boat, barge and ship handling. This book is the first step for a professional mariner adding a new competency to his or her art of towing--driving a Z-drive.

As you cross bridges and see tugboats and towboats moving enormous cargos, do you wonder how these operations are managed? Towing operations are now the most significant part of the U.S. merchant fleet. Throughout the country, towing is providing an economical alternative to transporting cargo by train or truck trailers. Primer of Towing brings you updated information on the modernization of this growing industry. Offshore coastwise and foreign trade is also seeing a boom. The largest independent carrier of petroleum products in the U.S. is a tug/barge operation. Major growth also is continuous in towing services, such as: - Harbor work, assisting ships to maneuver, dock, and undock in confined waters - Fleeting operations that provide moorings for inland barges - Offshore work in the "oil patch" - Anchor handling by pipe-laying barges - Salvage - Pollution control - Escort towing - Assisting dredging operations - Marine construction - Moving passenger RV tours on inland barges - Assistance towing operations This book provides information on all aspects of towing operations and related subjects. It is for avid boatmen and women interested in the diverse aspects of seamanship.

Real-time, interactive ship simulators limped onto the scene, in the wake of flight simulators, some years ago. The maritime industries have a long history of conservatism, but this is now changing rapidly. The information age has also swept over ships and shipping, and has been taken to heart to such an extent that, for example, flight simulators now cooperate with ship simulators and import useful new concepts and methodologies. The more than 50 papers contained in this book show what and why. Although traditionally conservative, the marine world is also traditionally international and this has not changed. The papers in the book are by leading authors from all over the world and provide a detailed snap-shot of the rapidly advancing state-of-the-art, together with pointers to the future. The overall theme of MARSIM '96 and therefore also of this book is: Vessel manouevrability and marine simulation research, training and assessment, and includes original papers on topics such as bridge resource management, distant learning and simulators coupled via The Internet, virtual reality, neural networks, rudder-propeller hydrodynamics, prime mover models, squat in shallow water, and many more.

Vessels ftted with azimuthing podded propulsors have much better maneuvering capabilities. They are also environmentally friendly with much reduced exhaust emissions. With these unique features ,they offer signifcant economic, safety and environmental advantages to society, but unfortunately, the routines and the emergency procedures of the azimuthing podded propulsion system were not clearly defned and incorporated into onboard ISM systems. Masters, Chief Engineers and Pilots should receive a specialist training before they lay their hands on the controls, but instead most of them still have to try learning on the job, which sometimes lead to serious incidents, near misses and accidents with serious consequences. One of the reasons that encouraged me to write this book is to draw attention to these serious shortcomings which someday may cause society to pay a high price. My main focus in this book has been on telling about the shiphandling behaviours of electrically-driven azimuthing propulsors rather than the mechanically-driven azimuthing propulsors. Despite the fact that the shiphandling principles of both systems are quite similar, I chose not to mention much about the mechanically driven azimuthing propulsors as they are mostly related with tugboats. Tugboat handling is another speciality, which I believe should be explained only by seasoned tugboat captains themselves. I am a professional maritime pilot but an amateur author and this book is solely intended to share my humble experience and knowledge with my colleagues, ship captains, students and all other interested parties of the maritime industry. Dear Reader, I had actually started writing this book in order to keep my experience on the subject in writing and bring together all the data I have collected from various resources at different times. To improve my knowledge and experience, I have also joined a special manned model course for “Pod Handling and Emergencies” at Port Revel Shiphandling Centre which is located at Grenoble, France in May 2010. Vessels ftted with azimuthing podded propulsors have much better manoeuvring capabilities, such as reduced turning diameters and signifcantly shorter stopping distances compared to the conventional systems with a fxed propeller and conventional rudder. They are also environmentally friendly with much reduced exhaust emissions. With these unique features ,they offer signifcant economic, safety and environmental advantages to society, but unfortunately, the routines and the emergency procedures of the azimuthing podded propulsion system were not clearly defned and incorporated into onboard ISM systems. Even class surveyors and Port State surveyors don’t seem to have enough knowledge about this technology. Masters, Chief Engineers and Pilots should receive a specialist training before they lay their hands on the controls, but instead most of them still have to try learning on the job, which sometimes lead to serious incidents, near misses and accidents with serious consequences. One of the reasons that encouraged me to write this book is to draw attention to these serious shortcomings which someday may cause society to pay a high price.
