CORRUGATED SHIPS GROWING IN Many advantages are claimed for corrugated ships, the use of which is increasing on the north-east coa-t of England. The design consists of the addition of two fore and aft corrugations along ea'-h side which merge into the normal ends of the ship. The main object is to increase the rigidity of the side by forming wha* are essentially girders of great strength. These subdue the wave- made !>y the ship and reduce vibration and rolling. They also increase speed and reduce fuel consumption, according to reports of shipowners. C.G.M.M. S OPERATING LOSSES IN 1924.
