Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Opportunities to visit steam turbine powered ships are now few and far between and the recent scrapping of older passenger tonnage due to stricter SOLAS regulations has not helped. SS Margaret Hill was a liquefied natural gas carrier with the boilers fired on boil-off gas (BOG - yes really). The vessel was built in 1974 by Moss at Stavanger, Norway and fitted with a General Electric cross compound steam turbine of 30,400 horsepower and good for 19.5 knots.
This is a view across the navigation bridge. The grey box in the middle is the helm. The man on the right in the distance arranged the visit and is an ex-marine engineer who was involved in the design of this vessel. It was apparently in excellent order but has now gone for scrap |
