3. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Rescue boat designed and manufactured according to latest SOLAS, Classification Society and
National Authority requirements.

The rescue boat has excellent reliability, manoeuvrability, and sea-keeping abilities in order to
fulfil its prime function to provide an effective means of search and recovery for persons missing
at sea.

inspection, patrol, survey and work boat duties.

4. HULL AND DECK

The rescue boat is fabricated in fire-retardant glass reinforced polyester with a hand laid
construction method.

Two longitudinal bulkheads, along the length of the hull, transverse bulkhead and spray rails
provide structural strength. The hull is a fully planning, deep-V type with transom stern, giving
optimum sea keeping ability at all speeds in all sea conditions.

The space between hull and inner liner is filled with polyurethane buoyancy foam. If damaged
below the waterline, the boat will float at safe level in fully flooded and loaded condition. The boat
is self-bailing through two drainage outlets at the stern.

A neoprene fender protects the hull by absorbing impacts. The deck has an anti-slip surface.
Lifelines and grab handles are fitted on the gunwale.
