"The most advanced 24-pax project crew boats available, the four SWATH (Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull) boats SEA BREEZE, SEA GALE, SEA HURRICANE and SEA STORM raise the barrier for onboard comfort. Able to do safe transfers at higher waves and rougher seas, these vessels offer higher availability for service in the field. The carbon-fibre hull, matched with the best buoyancy technology available, ensures exceptional stability in high seas. The boats are built to stay out in the field for several days in a row, optimizing transfer times and fuel consumption.

 

With the SWATH design, the crew avoids suffering from seasickness. The cabins are very well appointed, making her a popular crew boat to work on. The vessels are fast, too – able to reach speeds of up to 22 knots – so the journey to and from hotel ships and platforms, or to and from shore, will be quick, comfortable and the envy of other crews operating in European waters."
