Abstract
Currently, standards and guidelines for camel design are somewhat limited and do not work for various vessels with different hull shapes at the same berthing facility. This paper introduces three different types of portable camels designed recently and installed for the ships with special hull shapes at U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) Kodiak Station, Port of Seattle Cruise Ship Terminal 91, and Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam. All of these unique camel systems have been actively in service protecting multiple vessels and the pier and wharf facilities. This introduction of the camel designs will impact the development of future standards and guidelines for camel design with durable materials, manufacturing and installation methods, and maintenance.
