This ambulance boat will operate in the north of Norway and the requirement was for a vessel that could offer a comfortable ride for casualties in adverse conditions. The boat is based on Maritime Partner's 21 metre catamaran design with construction in aluminium. The hull is being built in Eastern Europe and will be fitted out at Maritime partner's yard with completion scheduled for August this year. The design of the boat is by Arne Lindstøl who commented, "There has been a great focus on the environmental perspective in the design process of this vessel. The hull is built from recycled aluminium which uses just 5% of the energy of new aluminium and the hull will be left bare to stop paint emissions. The development of this vessel has been carried out in close cooperation with the ship owners, crew, user's research institutions, class companies and authorities."
