Ultra-Fast Monohull
 | This vessel with its various load permutations to a maximum 1250dwt, and with the versatility and economic credentials to maintain peak season schedules at 60knots and off-season service at 30knots, is at the top end of the proposed range. At the same time, the consultancy has initially worked-up a detailed design for a more modest vessel of 40knots. |
Within the same general hull envelope, at proposed main dimensions of 150.5m length overall, 22.4m moulded breadth, and 4m scantling draught, the 40knot ro-pax version would incorporate a 76MW CODAG plant driving two steerable waterjets and two fixed, booster units. In her day ferry and high-season role, she would accommodate 1500 passengers, cars and other vehicles, while her deck configuration and point load ratings would also be conducive to a freight-orientated role at other times. The ro-ro spaces, accessed through a stern ramp of 20.6m width, would permit axle weights of 17.5tonnes and maximum unit weights of 45tonnes.
