'ROC + Dock' project darts towards the wrap-up phase

By Martin Conway

The prototype docking station, deployed on the River Dart in September, enables docking and recharging of South Devon College's 'USV Dart' without manual intervention

The UK-based ROC + DOCK project has brought together remote-controlled operations, a dual-function simulator and a ‘hands-off’ docking station, to encourage force multiplication of uncrewed vessels in ports and harbours

Hybrid CSOV 'Windea Clausius' joins Bernhard Schulte Offshore fleet

By Martin Conway

The 89.6m 'Windea Clausius' was "built to operate in strong currents and is less limited by weather conditions", Ulstein says

The latest addition to Bernhard Schulte Offshore’s CSOV fleet, Windea Clausius, combines a methanol-ready hybrid propulsion plant with Ulstein’s Twin X-STERN design for energy efficiency and ease of operations

Wind power for patrol boats? Ask the New Generation

By Martin Conway

The PAMNG is a 53.7m-long boat powered by a diesel-electric hybrid system and a Wisamo wingsail

We've seen wingsails applied to bulkers and tankers - but aboard a smaller patrol boat? The latest design from MAURIC, set for launch in 2027, could open up an entirely new market for wind-assisted propulsion systems
