Hi Peter,
thats a very interesting broachure or book that you have uploaded. You would not happen to know where one could buy a copy of this book. its must be a recent publication judging by the Wartsila ad concerning the X range of Engines.
And nice shot again Vlad, keep em coming.

Regards Frank

Thanks for the great photo, and additional info members. This is really awesome.

And a video from the return to Japan from the USA of a big model of HIWAKA MARU:

Jens, as long as Ripley is in her usual alien-fighting attire, I don't mind seeing her in this scenery... :)

Peter, thanks for the booklet, fantastic find!

Cheers

Squeaky clean - looks like you could eat from the floor. Though when I saw the thumbnail first I was expecting Ellen Ripley to come around the corner searching for Jonesy :-))

Very interesting photo, Vlad!

Have found a brochure about B&W Copenhagen Diesels in my archive. Hope this may assist. Click: http://www.cimac.com/cms/upload/history/Dragsted_History_Booklet_2013.pdf

Hi Bob,

Engine info on the link is not correct: these are 8 cylinder engines, not 12 cylinders. As for their manufacturer, the info plates on site state only "B&W of Denmark". Ikegai Ironworks Corp. is mentioned only in relation to her generator engine, as being "one of the few Japan made components".

Cheers

Vlad
