Master Marine said it has laid the first keel of four new 67’ x 28’ fleet boats ordered in September. 

Each boat will be powered by a pair of S6R2-Y3MPTAW Mitsubishi 803 HP tier III diesel marine engines to be operated at 1,400 RPM coupled to Twin Disc 5321 gears. The boats will be set up with 10,400 gallons of fuel, 4,359 gallons of potable water and 9,500 gallons of ballast water along with providing a maximum 7’-9” working draft.

All four fleet boats will be working in the Cairo fleeting area for Waterfront Services and CGB Enterprises.

The first vessel will be delivered and in service the summer of 2017 providing added assets to both companies and service for their customers with additional vessels to follow every three months.
