8 M HIGH SPEED RESCUE BOAT The 8 m is a relatively small, open and fast rescue boat named the “Gunnel Larson class” by the Swedish rescue organization, SSRS. It is designed primarily for operations in the archipelago and coastal areas where the crafts speed, flexibility and maneuverability is crucial for the outcome of an accident. All equipment in the Gunnel Larson class has been developed with the ergonomics of the crew as an important aspect. Thanks to good ergonomics, the crew can carry out demanding missions in harsh weather conditions. The vessel is not only succesfully used by rescue organizations...

11 M HIGH SPEED RESCUE BOAT Based on the larger 12 m the 11 m is developed to be an affordable craft with small environmental footprint. The prototype boat for the class is funded by a lottery and is hence called the “Postkodlotteri class”. The hull is equipped with a ballast tank that is filled under 8 knots. The tank is automatically emptied at higher speeds. This gives wanted stability at when lying still and at low ship speeds and also better fuel economy and lower waves at transit and top speeds. In collaboration with the Chalmers University of Technology a study has been made targeting...

12 M HIGH SPEED RESCUE CRAFT The 12 meter high speed rescue craft has been built in more than 30 units and is operated by several rescue societies. The so called “Victoria Class” is designed for operations at open sea, along the coasts and in the archipelagos. The self-righting hull ensures that the boat turns back on even keel even if it is knocked down by large waves. The shallow draft waterjet equipped vessel allows for operation in shallow waters. The well proven design is characterized by the high controllability and good running characteristics in all weather conditions. 12 m High Speed...

14 M FAST RESCUE CRAFT The Bergesen class vessels has been built in several 13 to 14 m versions both in Carbon as well as in E-glass. It is a high speed low wake wash design.

20 M OFFSHORE RESCUE VESSEL The 20 m offshore rescue vessel is designed to be self-righting. Three of the so called “Rausing class” has been built for the Swedish Rescue Society, SSRS. It is designed for operation in traffic-intensive areas with large passenger flows along the coasts. The offshore design is capable to operate under extreme weather conditions in open waters. The vessel is equipped with waterjets giving very good maneuverability and allowing for operation in shallow waters. On aft deck a so called Rescue Runner is stowed enables rescue operation in extremely shallow areas very...
