Marine Craft Constructors' new design involves use of five tubeless tires, 10 ft in diam, each revolving on its own bearings, and mounted on steel cylinder with rotating swivel and eyes at each end; rims for wheels are hand forged in 4Mg-Al alloy, Hiduminium 35; during test in Force 7 gale, which resulted in breaking of 4 1/2 in. diam steel mooring wire, ships rode alongside each other without tremor; it is suggested that improved fender will probably be welcomed, particularly for off-shore loading tankers.
