jher capacious tanks, the ‘Aleutian
Native’ has a cruising range of ap
proximately 15,000 nautical miles.
The converted boat will be commis
sioned on or about the latter part
of this month, according to Archi
tct Hanson.
The inboard profile of the craft,
indicates that the ‘Aleutian Native’
will have a trim appearance. The
deck auxiliaries are worthy of men
tion, for there will be two 10-h. p.
deck winches, one 5-h. p. tow bit,
and one 15-h. p. anchor windlass to
handle the anchor chain and wire
cables as well. With her two Wash
ington Diesels turning up to their
standard speed, the ship is expect
to log nine knots.
