Blyth delivers first 17 metre workcat to windfarm support company

摘要

UK-based windfarm support company Wildcat Marine has taken delivery of the first 17-metre workcat from Blyth Workcats. The new boat was handed over in Southampton, UK, and is now based in Barrow, Furness, from where it is currently providing support services for the Walney Wind Farm in the Irish Sea off the coast of Cumbria. The new vessel, 'Wildcat 3', is the largest catamaran ever built by Blyth Workcats. The new 17-metre boat is the third Blyth Workcat to be owned by Wildcat Marine. The company began supporting wind farm operators in 2008 with an 11 metre Blyth Workcat. This was followed by a 14 metre Workcat and the company is now confident that the new 17 metre will surpass the performance and economy of its predecessors.
