Palfinger to Replace Six Large Lifeboat Stations

April 10, 2018

Palfinger Marine has been chosen as the supplier for the replacement of six large lifeboat stations for the accommodation vessel Edda Fides.
“We have been working closely with Edda Accoommodation on this project and found the best technical solution for their needs. Edda Accommodation’s request was to increase the lifeboat capacity as much as possible so that they are able to meet requirements from their customers worldwide,” says Robin Holmedal Pedersen, Area Sales Manager LSE. 
 
Palfinger Marine’s scope of delivery consists of six large, totally enclosed lifeboats with accompanying davits. Each lifeboat has a capacity of 150 persons in standard SOLAS mode. The seating arrangement for Edda Fides lifeboats is specially designed and even goes beyond standard SOLAS regulations.
