Pod propulsion for wind farm service boat

摘要

South Boats in the UK has delivered Performer, an aluminum hull catamaran driven by Volvo Penta IPS pods, to Sweden's Northern Offshore Services.rnOffshore wind farm support vessels such as Performer are usually powered by water jet or variable pitch propellers, but this time Northern Offshore Services chose Volvo Penta IPS pods. The vessel went straight into duty at an offshore wind power park south of Denmark and lives up to its name by providing full service speed with a full load and in rough seas.
