I apologize for the condition of the send below. Somehow my C-64 managed to
translate a perfectly normal upper/lower case file into all upper case when
uploading. In any case, the Industrious is an example design using George
Herbert's watercraft rules, posted last week.

INDUSTRIOUS CLASS TANKER TL7
THE INDUSTRIOUS CLASS TANKER IS A WATERCRAFT SPECIALIZED FOR LONG DISTANCE
TRANSPORTATION OF BULK LIQUIDS.
CRAFTID: INDUSTRIOUS CLASS TANKER, TL7, MCR22.883
HULL: 3600/9000, DISP=4000, CONFIG=4SL, ARMOR=12B, UNLOADED=3766.2T,
LOADED=27006T
POWER: 4/8, IMPINTCOMB=36MW, DUR=20 DAYS@75% POWER
LOCO: 3/6, PROPELLOR=1 (ELECTRIC DRIVE), MAXSPEED=31KPH, CRUISE=30KPH,
RANGE=14400KM
COMM: RADIO=CONTINENTAL(5000KM)
SENSORS: RADAR=DIST(5KM), ACTOBJSCAN=FORM, ACTOBJPIN=FORM
OFF: HARDPOINTS=40 (NO WEAPONS INSTALLED)
DEF: -
CONTROL: ELEC*3040
ACCOM: CREW=24 (6 BRIDGE, 6 ENGINEERING, 9 MAINTENANCE, 3 COMMAND),
SMALLSTATEROOMS=24, ENV=BASIC ENV (CREW SPACES ONLY)
OTHER: FUEL=540KL, CARGO=22700KL, OBJSIZE=LARGE, EMLEVEL=FAINT
NOTES: CREW WAS DETERMINED BY STARSHIP REQUIREMENT FORMULAS MULTIPLIED
BY THREE TO PROVIDE CONTINUOUS COVERAGE OF DUTY STATIONS.
CHARIOT CLASS SYSTEM DEFENSE BOAT TL13
THE CHARIOT CLASS IS A STANDARD IMPERIAL SDB DESIGN. HUNDREDS ARE IN
SERVICE WITH THE PLANETARY NAVIES OF THE INDUSTRIAL WORLDS OF LUNION AND
STROUDEN IN THE SPINWARD MARCHES ALONE. WHILE THE FUEL SUPPLY IS SUFFICIENT
TO ALLOW THIRTY FULL DAYS OF OPERATION AT MAXIMUM POWER, IT IS MORE OFTEN
STRETCHED TO PROVIDE 75 DAYS OF OPERATION AT 40% POWER, ENOUGH FOR 1-G
MENEUVER AND FULL LIFE SUPPORT. IF OPERATED IN LIFE SUPPORT AND PASSIVE
SENSOR ONLY MODE, AS WITH A LOITER OPERATION DURING AN ENEMY ATTACK ON THE
SYSTEM, ONLY ONE PERCENT OF THE POWER CAPACITY IS REQUIRED. THIS WOULD
ALLOW THE VESSEL TO WAIT FOR UP TO 4375 DAYS BETWEEN FUELINGS--WHICH IS TO
SAY, AS LONG AS NECESSARY.
