The Austal Design team in Australia
has experience in designing catamarans
and monohulls in the range from 80 to
330 ft. (24.3 to 100.5 m), with speeds
from 20 to 50 knots. This design group
also, uniquely, benefits from being part
of a shipbuilding group where lessons
learned from vessels built and in-service
are constantly being fed back to make
each new vessel a step up in functionali-
ty and maintainability.
The Main Deck was designed around a
3-5-3 arrangement with 36-in. aisles as
required by the 1990 Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA). Access to meet
ADA in fact makes the aisles 6 in. more
than USCG require, thus adding one ft.
to the beam of the vessel.
The concept for this vessel was that it
would work as either a Subchapter T
vessel (149 seats or less) or Subchapter
K (150 or more). Thus the Main Deck BRINGING TWO TOGETHER
CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
was designed around the potential of 149
seats (supplied by Beurteaux), which can
be achieved by removal of the
kiosk/concession midships, replacing
with an extra 18 seats.
Speed and economy were important
design goals and an appreciation of the
types of routes this vessel would operate
plus a strong awareness of the need to
minimize wake wash, which is a critical
issue in the U.S. environment) led to a
speed of 25 knots, which also meant that
fixed pitch propellers could be used, fur-
ther keeping costs down.
The vessel's required 2 x 1,100 hp
installed power comes from twin Cater-
pillar 3412E diesel engines, which will
drive fixed pitch props through ZF BW
190 CB gearboxes although at this time
a potential customer's preference may
lead to this being changed to Twin Disc.
Fuel consumption is a low 111 gallons
per hour for the main engines at full
power.

scaled 12'x24', all our fenders meet the most
stringent quality and performance standards.
The SEA GUARD fender combines quality
assurance standards with new elastomer
technologies such as a reinforced skin, making it
the answer to most fender system requirements.
The first of its kind 20 years ago, the Seaward
foam-filled fender maintains its record of relia-
bility. And we continue to develop and supply
the protective marine technologies that keep
you on course.
All our products tell the same story: Seaward is
committed to safeguarding your peace of mind.
