New generation wind farm vessel

UK-owned Seacat Services brought its month-old Seacat Enterprise vessel to Seawork 2017 to demonstrate its capabilities for the next generation of offshore wind farms. The Seacat Enterprise was built in the UK by partner company South Boats IOW to conduct continuous high-speed crew and equipment transfers and is HSOSC-certified to carry more than the standard 12 passengers. http://www.maritimejournal.com/news101/seawork/new-generation-wind-farm-vessel

Seacat Services 27m high speed utility vessel, ‘Seacat Enterprise’ delivered

Seacat Services’ innovative 27.4m catamaran, ‘Enterprise’, has self-sufficiency at its core. It’s a characteristic that promises to make it relevant for emerging wind maintenance operations. This High-Speed Utility Vessel is the first of a kind. Recently delivered by the South Boats IOW yard it “does what it says on the can” Seacat Services MD Ian Baylis told MJ. Enterprise has, he said, been developed in response to growing demand for carrying bulky equipment - along with a full complement of technicians - to increasingly remote sites. The hull itself has evolved a little from the original South Boats form since Andy Page et al took the design lead: a slightly finer entry with a high wet deck clearance combines to reduce slamming and the buoyancy is carried evenly along the length. However the robust 48dwt Enterprise still needs a good turn of speed. Therefore the engines are a pair of MTU 12V2000M72 s giving 1,450hp from each hull, 2,900hp total. - See more at: http://www.maritimejournal.com/news101/vessel-build-and-maintenance/vessel-launch/the-spirit-of-enterprise#sthash.qG2hIJdX.dpuf
