50 pax skippered by coxswain? In a world driven by operating costs we are always looking at how we can provide more but cost us less to build and operate.
In a world driven by operating costs we are always looking at how we can provide more but cost us less to build and operate. Bigger and better 'bang for your buck'! Our naval Architect has designed this multi purpose vessel as a Z bow to achieve a fine water line entry, maximise water line length and at the same time optimise sea keeping capabilities. His unique design has provided an ideal vessel capable of carrying 50+ passengers whilst being skippered by a Coxswain.
Clever design has this Z-Bow with an overall length of 14.17 metres with a waterline length of 12.13 metres but the kicker is she actually has a surveyed length of 11.97 metres, allowing for her to be skippered by a Coxswain! So, you have actually have a 14 mtr vessel whereby your operating cost are kept low with an affordable Coxswain to skipper and at the same time maximising your carrying capacity whilst maintaining high speed without compromising safety.
Very clever Commercial Boat Design which you can now take advantage of.
Offering loading from front (beach if you like) stern and both sides, makes her ideal for all applications. With power by your choice of two or four outboards, this vessel can achieve a loaded cruise of more than 30knots, maximising your outlay for the most efficient result. There is plenty of storage forward for passenger baggage or equipment, a single toilet (can easily provide two toilets if required).
Fast Ferry- Crew Boat- Charter Boat
With a 50 passenger carrying capacity and 22 knot loaded cruising speed, Bow, Stern and both side entry, survey for 30nm
offshore, this vessel is an ideal candidate for resorts, both large and small operators of tourism related industries.
Work Boat - Dive Boat - Support Vessel - Wind Farm Crew and Support
Multiple configuration allow this vessel great access into many markets. For diving, both commercial and charter, replace the seating with suitable tank racks. The bow ramp provides easy water access for your divers.

Transfer black water back to shore for disposal and deliver crew and gear on time with speed and awesome handling.
