IM-FPB 58-WPC
The IM-FPB 58-WPC is a high-speed wave-piercing aluminium catamaran. It has been conceived as a multipurpose vessel, specifically designed and built for rescue and surveillance operations, and as such is equipped for dealing with ship accidents, recovery of survivors at sea, fire fighting and coastal surveillance with regard to illegal immigration, fisheries protection and anti smuggling.
Powered by 4 diesel engines (246S kW each) coupled to 4 steering waterjets, the WPCAT S2R can achieve a speed of 40 knots, with superior seakeeping capability due to an active retractable T-foil. The WPCAT S2R is managed by a crew of 22 persons, and can carry on board 200 passengers/survivors.
A helicopter deck is located aft at wheelhouse level for a faster connection with land in case of emergencies.
