Pulsar - Specifications

MV Pulsar is a shallow drafted Cheetah Marine catamaran launched in 2006. The vessel is powered by twin Mercury 60HP 4 stroke outboard engines which generate a cruising speed in excess of 18 knots. The shallow draft and twin hull design make the vessel extremely manoeuvrable even at slow survey speeds as well as a stable survey platform, ideal for shallow water surveys. Bespoke over the side mounts allow repeatable mounting of the survey transducers. The data collection equipment and operators are housed within the forward cabin area of the vessel providing a comfortable working environment. The vessel is road transportable on the purpose-built trailer, which allows for rapid mobilisation.
