Odd Vessel Shapes Awe Readers In Oceanography Row
The Fildir is described as a 300 foot long towed tank craft that sinks by filling its tail while the head remains at the surface forming a floating section three stories high. Its equipment adapts as it shifts from vertical to horizontal, enabling a long Pacific cruising area for oceanographic work. The Rotor Ship, a German wind rotating vessel, failed commercially due to high costs. The first European steam vessel to operate regularly was the Comet, built in 1812 for passenger traffic on the Clyde, powered by a unique paddle wheel arrangement and wrecked during its voyage.
