New landing craft delivered to Utah Division of Parks and Recreation

Baird Maritime

Alabama-based Silver Ships has delivered a new landing craft to the Utah Division of Parks and Recreation, a sub-agency under the state's Department of Natural Resources.

The 7.92-metre vessel is powered by two Suzuki 223kW outboard engines and is designed for operations in both extreme heat and cold conditions.

The landing craft also features a completely enclosed walk-around cabin including a fully coated pilothouse and vessel interior to minimise heat buildup from solar loading. Suspension seating was also installed to help minimise injury risk for operators and crew.
