There are seven self-dumping pockets each 23 ft. long in the clear. The dumping doors are unusually large and heavy and the door closing gear is operated by a gasoline engine located in an engine room amidships below the level of the deck. This engine through chain drives and fore and aft shaft, operates all of the self-dumping doors. The bulkheads and coamings are protected with heavy timber, covered with 15 lb. plate, and the scow through- out is designed to be in keeping with the modern type of ten yard dipper dredge which is used for load- ing this type of scow.
