DRYDOCKING& SHIPBOARD MAINTENANCE AGuide For Industry - First Edition - Ref: DRYD The need for shipboard maintenance in an age of the principles of International Safety Management (ISM) has never been more important. If the industry is to operate at all it must be within the safety guidelines. Many shipboard tasks fall inside the planned maintenance programmes which can be conducted on a day to day basis but many of the annual tasks required to operate ships tend to accumulate and can only be catered for within a docking scenario. Over 100 Photographs - Numerous diagrams and check lists. Listing of Dry Dock operations, handling facilities, main ship builders and repair yards. International listing of countries with Dry Docking and Ship Repair facilites. Price £40 Members £37 +p&p UK Free EUR £5.00 OVS £9

FULLYREFRIGERATED LPGCARRIERS By Syd Harris FRINA Ref: FRLPG This new publication , claimed by the author, gas shipping consultant Syd Harris, as unique, provides the first comprehensive study of the design and development of fully refrigerated LPG carriers. It spans a period from the challenging and exciting refrigeration breakthrough in the late 1950s to the present day, having been written from a naval architecture's point of view and by a man who has spent his whole working life in the gas sector.

SD14: THE FULLSTORY JOHN LINGWOOD Ref: SD14


For


The SD14 is almost extinct, and this book is a fitting tribute to a much-admired British-designed cargo ship. Indeed, it should become the definitive history of the SD14 its derivatives. It provides a first-hand account of the SD14's conception and planning from a member of the design team, with many personal insights into the shipbuilding industry of the 1960s. Included are full career details of every SD14, the Prinasa-121s, the SD15 and the three SD18s: a total of 228 ships built by seven yards in four countries. Every ship is illustrated, usually at several stages of its career, 99% in full colour. Price £29.50 Members £26.50 + p&p UK £6 Eur £8 ROW£16


SEAKEEPING: Ship Behaviour in Rough Weather (Second Edition) By DrAR J M Lloyd FEng FRINA Ref: SEA01 Comprehensive revised account of waves, ship motions, trials, model testing, probability formulae, roll stabilisation, added resistance, slamming, deck wetness, propeller emergence, human factors, seakeeping criteria, operational effectiveness and the effect of hull form and size on seakeeping. Worked examples and design recommendations Price £45 (RINA Member £43) + p&p UK £5.50 Eur £8 OVS £16

INVESTIGATINGS: SHIPS For 8 -12 year olds By Chris Oxlade - Consultant Trevor Blakeley FRINA Get your children or grand-children interested in the workings of Ships & Boats early Ref: ISHIP


This well illustrated and thoroughly researched book covers the subject of ship motion. Seafarers through ages have known what ship motion is because they experience it. However predicting motion in advance to better control a ship requires knowledge of the physical principles involved. This single volume contains a wealth of information. It is very thought-provoking as well as being very informative. Mr Clark's unique style of illustrating complex hydrodynamic interactions enables this book to reach across the boundaries between naval architect and mariner. Even experienced naval architects and mariners will find much to interest them. The author is to be congratulated in putting across some quite complex physical phenomena in a way which is so easy to follow.

This new book is focused specifically on a multi-hull-ship type having one or more small hulls, called outriggers, connected to a much larger main hull of any form. This book is kind of a supplement to the recently published MULTI-HULL SHIPS by Dubrovsky & Lyakhovitsky (MHS). Like MHS, the new “Ships with Outriggers” provides detailed technical discussions of arrangements, hydrostatics, propulsion and seakeeping in calm and rough seas, maneuvering, strength, and design of these ships, assuming that the reader is generally familiar with the background or can find it in MHS”. £60 (RINA Member £57) + p&p N America/Canada £4 ROW £11 When purchased with Multi- Hull Ships £25 RINA member £23 + p&p for MHS only.

THERE GO THE SHIPS - SECOND EDITION Marshall Meek FRINA Ref: TGTS The author was the Chief Naval Architect and Director of Ocean Fleets. Now, in this finely crafted account he offers an individual perspective of 60 years in the maritime world. He tells of the glorious days when UK shipowners were in their prime before their rapid and ignominious collapse, how merchant shipbuilding sank without trace despite large subsidies, and the 'head in the sand' philosophy of management and unions towards foreign competition.


Throughout the book the author touches on his involvement with these major sections, but also with the many supporting activities. Price £9.95 ( RINA Member £9.95) + p&p UK £2.50 Eur£3.50 ROW £7.50
