Search and Rescue vessel 17 M

Description

Search and rescue vessels (SAR: Search and Rescue) are specifically designed to perform emergency operations at sea and beaches. Due to their special characteristics, these vessels play a vital role in critical situations, such as search and rescue during maritime accidents, accidents, or bad weather conditions. Below are the more detailed features and new technologies of these types of vessels:

Features of the search and rescue vessel:

Body construction:
The vessel body is made of three-layer aluminum alloy. This design makes the float both light and durable. Three-layer aluminum is a suitable choice for the construction of search and rescue vessels due to its anti-corrosion properties and high strength against harsh marine environmental conditions.
This type of alloy reduces the weight of the float and gives it the possibility of better maneuverability and higher speed, at the same time, it provides high resistance to impacts and harsh environmental conditions.
Tanks and fuel:
The boat has a fuel tank with a volume of 4000 liters. This provides sufficient fuel volume to carry out long-term operations at sea, especially in emergency situations where the vessel may be involved in search and rescue for long periods of time.

vessel speed:
The vessel is capable of reaching a speed of 33 knots (about 60 km/h), which allows it to react quickly in emergency situations and when people need to be rescued quickly.
High speed is critical for a search and rescue vessel because time is a critical factor in search and rescue operations.
Engines:
The float has two MTU brand engines. MTU engines are known for their power, reliability and high performance in marine conditions. These engines allow the vessel to move at high speed in the sea and perform precise maneuvers when needed.
Powerful MTU engines also provide the ability to perform high-pressure and critical operations in harsh conditions.
Also, this vessel uses kaMeWa brand water jets, which help a lot in transferring power to this vessel during operation.
vessel dimensions:
The length of the float is 17.5 meters and its width is 4.60 meters. These dimensions make the vessel suitable for search and rescue operations in coastal and port areas.
The medium size of the vessel allows it to easily enter tight and inaccessible areas and conduct search and rescue operations in shallow waters and beaches.
Advanced navigation systems:
The vessel is equipped with the best navigation systems that allow the crew to carry out their operations with high precision in any weather conditions or when visibility is low.
These navigation systems usually include advanced GPS, radar, automatic control systems, and other modern tools to accurately identify and track the position of people or objects at sea.

Towing hook: This vessel uses the hook to tow other vessels, boats, etc. when necessary. This hook is capable of towing objects weighing 3 tons.
Application of search and rescue vessels:

These vessels are usually used in various marine operations, including:

Rescue people at sea
Aid to damaged ships or vessels
Support in relief operations on beaches and ports
Used to search for missing ships or boats. The ability of these vessels to move quickly, access to hard-to-reach areas and their advanced equipment have made these vessels key tools in relief operations.
