Text Appearing Before Image:
Stand-ard Motor Construction Company. This is exactly the same motorused in the British M. L.s and was already being produced in quantitywhen the chaser program was started. The original propellers werethree-bladed, 36-in. diameter by 63-in. pitch, and were changed laterto 39-in. diameter by 57^-in. pitch. The center engine can be uncoupledfrom its propeller shaft to allow the wheel to turn without draggingwhen the boat is cruising under the two wing screws. The auxiliary machinery set is a duplicate of that in the M. L.spreviously described. Gasoline is carried in four large shaped tanksfitted on the compartment forward of the engine room under the floorof the officers quarters. The total capacity is 2400 gal., which givesa radius of action of about 1000 nautical miles at a cruising speed of12 knots. The maximum speed is between IG and 17 knots. Aboutiy2 to 1^ knots more speed is obtained under all three engines thanunder the two wing engines alone. TlIK CIXDERELLAS OF THE FLEET 175
