Experience derived from this usage, from the conversion of the USNS GIBBS to a research vessel, as well as from preliminary plans for the conversion of the USS TERROR to a research vessel, is described as it relates to the preliminary design of the T-AGOR-16. A discussion of the preliminary design of the catamaran research vessel and its equipage is presented and terminates with the development of the building specifications. (Author)
