And that wasn't easy. Because the fact is, you can
find CAPRINUS U Oil just about anywhere you find hard-
working inland marine boats.
CAPRINUS is Shell's top-of-the-line, premium-
quality marine oil specially formulated for extended
service in medium-speed diesel engines.
Our single grade, CAPRINUS U Oil 4 0 , is a high-
dispersant, zinc-free* oil which provides excellent
protection and keeps engines running clean.
CAPRINUS U 2 0 W - 4 0 Multigrade lowers operating
costs by reducing oil and fuel consumption versus single
grade oils. It also delivers excellent engine protection,
which reduces maintenance costs in the long run.
We're so confident of the quality of CAPRINUS Oil,
we back it with a written warranty. If it does not
perform as promised, we'll pay to repair any engine
damage caused by oil failure. Some restrictions apply.

Solar Turbines Inc., San Diego, a
subsidiary of Caterpillar, Inc., has
introduced a marinized version of
its 5 MW (6,500 hp) Centaur Taurus
engine for propulsion application on
fast ferry boats of 40 meters (130
feet) or more in length. The gas
turbines's compact size, light weigh,
virtual absence of vibration, fuel flex-
ibility, high reliability, and very
clean exhaust emissions are major
advantages for operators of new fast
ferries.
Designed as model T6502(M),
Solar's marinized Centaur Taurus
industrial turbine, the most power-
ful turbine of Solar's Centaur tur-
bine family, is a high-efficiency
simple-cycle two-shaft engine with
a two-stage free power turbine for
variable-speed operation. It can
drive wateijets, propellers or elec-
trical generators. Solar can provide
the Centaur Taurus gas turbine with
a conventional speed-reducing gear-
box either with or without a reverse
gear, or with an epicyclic gearbox.
