According to Wisdom Nwagwu, General Manager of C&I Leasing, the latest delivery will bring the total number of this type of vessels to seven in its fleet. In addition, Damen deliver an eight metre RHIB for up to ten passengers.

The boats have a length of 16.15m, a beam of 5.40m and a depth at sides of 1.85m. Their construction is based on aluminum for the hull and GRP composite materials for the superstructure.

Propulsion is provided by two Rolls Royce waterjets powered by two Caterpillar C18 engines. Maximum speed is at 30 knots and maximum range at that speed is 210nm. The Stan Patrol 1605 vessels can accommodate a crew of six, which will be protected by a bullet-proof structure.

Damen Service Hub in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, will provide the after sales support and on-site training. Martin Verstraaten, Damen Regional Service Manager Africa, said on the occasion of the delivery: “The establishment of the Service Hub ensures a local presence with quick response times with Field Service Engineers and a local Site Manager on the ground. This dynamic team maintains close contact with local repair facilities, cooperation with local suppliers and reinforces the strong relationship with our customers.”
