Kooiman BV Contracts for Survey, Life-Extension of SWATH
The Dutch Pilotage Service contracted with Kooiman BV for a major maintenance survey and life-extension of its SWATH vessel Cetus en Persues.
The SWATH, a catamaran vessel measuring 25.7 x 14.3 x 2.7m was built in 2005.
Combined with regular special survey, Shipyard Kooiman is providing refit services to extend the life of the vessel, with a net total increase in propulsion power.
Additional modifications include electrical, cooling water systems, interior and accommodations.
These vessels have accommodations for a three-person crew and 12 passengers.
Work onthe boat started in mid September 2015, and it will be docked at the beginning 2016. The modifications and repairs will be performed in the new building hall of Shipyard Kooiman, which measures 100 x 30m.
