It will have a round prow with a flare given by the V-bottom ccn- struction making it an excellent sea- boat with more speed in proportion to power than in the conventional flatbottom power scows. Two 135-horsepower Murpihy Die- sels will be installed in the craft by the Fisheries Supply Company and the trial run will be watched with interest by cannery men and others interested in new maritime developmets. The scow is to be com pleted in abeut twe months. Work on the V-bottom is only one of several contracts held by the company which also will shortly construct six shovel-nose flatbot- tem power scows for varleus can- neries.
