The boat features an extension of the hull form used for the successful 16m pilot boat and similarly can be optimized for either waterjets or propellers. The design is a development of our successful 15m patrol boat which has proved popular in its role with the Ministry of Defense Police. Featuring a larger wheelhouse and more spacious accommodation the boat is more suited to longer range patrols and extended periods at sea.
The Camarc designed hull offers a high level of speed and maneuverability and is capable of speeds of up to 40 knots depending on specification and engine options.
The boat features ballistic protection incorporated into the hull and superstructure to provide a good level of protection to the crew. The centrally located wheelhouse offers a flexible platform for a variety of electronics and weapon systems options.
