Offshore service provider Seaways International recently took delivery of two Damen fast crewboats at Damen Shipyards Singapore.

The vessels each have capacity for 30 passengers and six crew as well as FiFi notation with a capacity of 600 cubic metres per hour and a throw length of 85 metres.

Damen claims the vessels' unique hull shape provides optimal seakeeping at speeds of up to 30 knots.

The two newbuilds will be transported on a heavy-lift vessel to Luanda, Angola.

A third vessel is currently under construction at Damen Shipyards Antalya in Turkey and is scheduled for delivery in July.
