South Boats IOW has delivered its second of class South Cat 26m, ‘Seacat Courageous’ to Seacat Services Ltd., also of Cowes, Isle of Wight.
With the first of class, ‘Seacat Intrepid’, currently working in the German North Sea, the qualities and capabilities of the vessel design have been very apparent. Passenger comfort levels, sea-keeping and turbine access performance have correlated well with the extensive hull research and development programme carried out over a number of years to increase working capabilities.
‘Seacat Courageous’ is currently contracted to a UK project before it attends the Seawork International exhibition and conference at Southampton on June 16th-18th, where the vessel will be available for viewing, along with representatives from both South Boats IOW and Seacat Services.
Ben Colman of South Boats IOW Ltd: “We are very proud to have handed ‘Seacat Courageous’ over to Seacat Services Ltd. and wish the vessel well on her current and future projects.”
