The CarbCAT® 25 is a state-of-the-art wind farm support vessel built in carbon fibre for long life lightness combined with strength and exceptional fuel economy.

The venture is likely to expand to cover larger wind farm vessels and Coastal Marine may sub-contract some building work to its sister company, Mashfords, based in Cremyll on the River Plym.
