A SHIP under repair brings in no revenue. The up-to-date equipment of Bethlehem Ship Repair Yards is assurance to the shipowner that the work will be com- pleted and his vessel back in service with a minimum of ‘time out,”?

This plant, entirely rebuilt in 1929, has every modern facility for rapid handling of materials throughout the yards, shops, ee a> tgs Fanos’ r Lita” ~~ gsvin ae ae Ned/ Ss %y, ae fl Ki Ne - x with graving and floating drydocks capable of taking ves- sels up to 600 ft. in length. The outfitting basins, with 3100 ft. of concrete piers, have connections for supplying vessels with electric current, compressed air, steam, and vater. Two fully-equipped repair barges permit emergency repairs to be made satisfactorily at ship’s berth.
