Tuco Marine has handed over a ProZero 10.5m WBW Archipelago workboat to Norwegian owners. The vessel is to enter service in Bergen, Norway, for the local Archipelago services and has been sold through the Norwegian company, Provide Maritime, Florø, Norway.
 
According to the builder, the vessel is a fast and light multipurpose workboat that features a hydraulic bow gate and a deck crane for handling cargo over the vessels side. Constructed from the flexible and unique ProZero construction, the vessel is built with a flexible hung cabin to ensure the best possible comfort in the wheelhouse. 
 
The delivered vessel is equipped with a flexible hung cabin mounted on rubber shocks to secure optimal sound dampening and crew comfort inside the cabin. Two suspended seats, a passenger sofa and a toilet ensure improved traveling experience for the crew and passengers. On the aft deck of the vessel, a large heated locker is mounted, serving as a dry locker for the crew’s clothes and tools.
 
The design of the ProZero cabin ensures a huge amount of daylight, also improving personal comfort. A sliding door secures that access to and from the cabin can be done with minimum obstacles for the people working on deck or walking past the cabin entrance.
 
The foredeck also features the engine room access and a deck mounted tool box for the crew.
