For DXF and 2DD output, various options are available for controlling what information is included with the developed shapes, e.g. one option allows you to substitute equal bend lines for ruling lines. Equal bend lines are an alternate set of ruling lines that show where a panel must be bent for any specified bend angle.
This new automatic system allows clean sailing without the need tor anti-fouling paint, helping protect our environment, while maintaining ultimate

The initial LBC was an all in one ROV/Crawler. Extensive testing, demonstrations and feedback have resulted in a Convertible type system. In its standard form the LBC is a fully capable MiniROV system offering all the capabilities of the LBV type systems. When conditions exceed the capability of ROV mode or more precise control is required simply attach the crawler skid and adhere to the hard surface.
This unique combination of ROV and Crawler capability makes LBC an incredibly well rounded and capable system. Consider when operating an ROV for ship hull inspections, unless conditions are ideal, the task can be challenging. Current flow can often make maintaining a stable position for accurate object identification difficult. Add turbid or black water conditions and the difficulty escalates. Additionally, once an object is located precisely identifying the object and its position on the ship hull have their own challenges.
The concept of creating a crawler that attaches to the ship hull helps to reduce and even eliminate the difficulties encountered. There are two primary inspection methods for the LBC.
ROV MODE (3D) - the LBC operates as a free flying ROV in ROV MODE without the crawler skid attached.
CRAWLER MODE (2D) - should conditions hinder the ability to maintain a stable position and accurately acquire the required video and data the LBC can quickly be fitted with the Crawler skid (less than 5 minutes).

Burger Boat Company is pleased to announce that it has been commissioned to build a new 43 meter (140') custom motor yacht. This vessel has been designed over the past 18 months by Burger's team in conjunction with an experienced yachting family who currently own their third Burger-built boat. This project also accomplishes Burger’s planned objective to start construction of one new yacht in mid 2008, with completion expected by mid 2010.
During the second half of 2008, Burger has the availability and intends to commit to the construction of one additional new custom yacht which, depending on size, is expected to be delivered in late 2010 or early 2011.
