The Eighteenth General Meeting of the American Towing Tank Conference was held in Annapolis, Maryland from the 23rd to the 25th of August 1977. The conference sessions were held in Rickover Hall, the Engineering Studies Complex at the United States Naval Academy. The 18th ATTC was attended by 226 delegates and observers from North and South America and a number of foreign guests who were at the Naval Academy to attend a meeting of the Presentation and Information Committee of the International Towing Tank Conference (ITTC). As part of the Conference, a dedication ceremony for the new 380 foot Naval Academy Model Basin was held on Wednesday afternoon, the 24th of August. During this dedication, water samples from the towing tanks represented at the conference were poured into the model basin in a 'mixing of the waters' ceremony.
