FINANCE OF OCEAN SPEEDS: THE MAURETANIA AND BREMEN

A COMPARISON

There is no doubt that the outstand ing event in the shipping world in 1029 was the new Atlantic record established by the Bremen, coupled with fresh evidence of extraordinary vitality on the part of Mauretania. In this year's "Journal of Commerce: Annual Review of Shipping,” a good deal of at- tention is concentrated on the future of ocean speed records,

"Speed." It is pointed out, "is a most" expensive feature in any ship, and the man in the street who speaks of in- creasing a vessel's speed from 25 to, ray, 27 knots does not usually recog aise the difficulties involved. Increase of speed means increased power, in creased power means increased fuel consumption, and increased power and fuel mean increased weight, leading to

grenter displacement.'

"Consequently, a larger ship is re- quired to carry the weight. This ship becomes largor again on account of the finer form required for economic pro- pulsion at higher speed. The vicious circle is completed, and still more horac-power is necessary to drive the larger ship."

Therefore "the principal factor lead, Ing to higher aper is is reduction of weight, which can be brought about by Improved machinery, both in weight per unlt power and fuel consumption, the scientific use of modern steel in the hull, and careful reduction of equipment weight.”

Modern Standards The writer gives interesting data showing how the anced of the Maure. tania could have been Increased by 1% knots it modera standards had been available at the time she was built. Thus, modern machinery with the same horse-power (72,500)) would weigh only 6,500 instead of 9,400 tons, Her fuel consumption on triala was 1.4fb. of coal per horse-power per hour, equivalent to about 1lb. of oil. This could now be reduced to .821b, or a saving of 38 per cent.
