Palfinger Marine has launched a new generation fast rescue boat, the FRSQ 630.
The boat is the first product to be released to the market after Palfinger acquired Harding Safety, a lifesaving systems specialist.
FRSQ 630
The GRP hull is based on former Harding’s bestselling fast rescue boat, and the FRSQ 630’s deep V-shape design ensures a soft ride at speed and in rough sea – also providing good control in sharp, high-speed turns. The streamlined and aft angled console is based on innovative and well-proven designs from Palfinger Marine's range of rigid console boats, including a helm designed for safety and good ergonomics.
The vessel can be delivered with waterjets ranging from 144 to 258 HP, and can achieve speeds of up to 34 knots. It has the capacity to carry up to 15 people including stretcher.
The FRSQ 630 is suitable for a wide range of operations for offshore, merchant and passenger vessels, including search and rescue missions, raft assistance and towing, diving support, crew transport and workboat duties. It is designed and manufactured in compliance with the latest SOLAS and NMA Offshore regulations. In addition, the entire console can be lifted off in a single lift to allow for easy maintenance.
