Yasa Golden Bosphorus from the Wheelhouse
"Tuppence" wrote in message ... "MWB" wrote in message ... I forget what these are called. It is known as a "Clear View Screen" The round device uses centrifugal force to remove water droplets. The center part is the motor. The round transparent disc is attached to the shaft of the center motor and spins when the motor turns. The spinning action removes the water from the disc and so navigators are able to get a clear view of the outside by looking through the spinning disc. Of course the edges of the spinning disc are constructed in such a way that water will not be able to enter the bridge. There are several makers. This is one: http://www.frenchmarine.com/Product....ID=826&CID=150 Regards, Tuppence Thank you. I knew it was something view. Mark |

It's an Aframax Class and this ship had 740,000 barrels of Azeri Crude Oil fromTurkey 740,000 X $74 = $54,760,000 How would you like to buy this cargo and have the price of oil drop to $60 a barrel?
