Work boat DMC 1450

inboard

The Delta Multi Craft 1400 is a multi‐purpose heavy‐duty workboat of rectangular hull form. The vessel is of standard design and series built, which guarantees a workboat of proven concept, combining good performance with operational reliability. The vessel can be used for a wide range of marine operations in sheltered and shallow waters, including pushing/pulling, buoy handling, dredging support work, ferrying of goods and personnel, fuel oil and water supply. Propulsion is by two main engines, each driving a fixed pitch nozzled propeller through a reduction gearbox and an in‐line shafting arrangement. The twin propulsion system ensures operational safety and high manoeuvrability. The hydraulic deck crane is positioned PS fore to create optimum free deck space. The wheelhouse is placed portside aft and well inboard to prevent it from being damaged when the boat is moored alongside high objects on rough seas. Hull and wheelhouse are of all welded steel construction. The hull is divided in four watertight compartments, viz. aft peak, engine room, tank compartment and fore peak. An integrated heavy steel sheer strake around the hull at deck level absorbs impact forces.
