This report contains the results of ice-breaking trials conducted on the United States Coast Guard Cutter KATMAI BAY (WTGB-101) during January-March 1979. Data include: powering, speed, and machinery measurement obtained while operating in level and brash ice in the vicinity of Sault Sainte Marie, Michigan. The various types of trial runs conducted included: (1) continuous, level ice-breaking; (2) ice-breaking in brash ice; (3) ice-breaking by ramming; (4) maneuvering in level and brash ice; (5) rudder torque validation; and (6) bollard pull. The data are presented in graphical and tabular form. No attempt is made to analyze the data as it is understood that these data will be included in a comprehensive overall report to be published by the Coast Guard Research and Development Center.
