ARCFORM SHIP ORDERED The first Austraiaslan-owned vessel of Arcform design has been ordered from Hawthorn, Leslie and Co., Ltd., of Newcastle-on-Tyne, by the Union Steam Ship Company of New Zealand. As the term suggests, the Arcform hull has a semi-circular midships cross section. It is claimed by Sir Joseph Isherwood, the inventor, that the new hull form increases strength, stability, capacity and speed, and its development is being closely watched by the shipping industry. The new vessel will be a single-screw steamer of 6000 tons gross, with a speed of 13 knots. She will enter the freight service between Australia and New Zealand.
