Zusammenfassung: | A marine unit mounted either forward or aft of a barge for steering or for steering and propelling same, including a spherical hull section being rotatable about the central vertical axis of a stationary deck section. After being rotated a predetermined amount, the marine unit is capable of shifting the barge in a lateral direction for purposes of steering it along a desired path. Shifting of the barge is effected by a pair of propulsion devices spaced on opposite sides of the central vertical axis. |
