Pilot Boat

The 17m Pilot Boat is a high speed all-aluminium self-righting craft, built to transfer pilots safely in an often-dangerous work environment. Suspension seating for three crew and four transfer personnel, an ergonomic deck layout and excellent captain’s line of sight, ensures safe embarking or pilots to and from a mother vessel.

Air conditioning, four berths and a sanitary space, allow for added crew comfort over long operating periods. Twin heavy-duty engines and fixed pitch propellers provide a range of 410 nm at 22 knots.
