This commercial Kvichak Pilot Boat was custom ordered and built to very precise specifications to allow for fast, long distance, all-weather transfer of crew alongside in the most challenging of Atlantic sea conditions and climate. Her design characteristics at sea are as reassuring as the ability to ease of maintenance of the vessel ashore. The ability to crane lift using the single point lift system, retrieve at local boat ramps, and transport over the road via trailer will add versatility to her new owner.
The systems aboard have benefited from professionally executed, proactive maintenance throughout their lives, with a diligently documented service history available.
The sum of these traits render continued use as a pilot vessel immediately possible in a wide range of scenarios and, due to her performance, versatile and construction, this Kvichak could, with minimal adaptation be used as a platform in many other marine businesses.
