The Conversion

Previous owner bought this vessel for a reported 7 million Euro and has put several million Euro into upgrading the ship.  The 'heavy-lifting' and Class-approved engineering has been done, saving the new owner many, many months of project work and project management. The vessel can still be customized to meet a new owner's mission and tastes.

This is probably a 6-9 month project to completion.

Hull

Survey comments: 

• The hull:
o Hull has been dry docked and is sandblasted twice, repaired where

needed and painted.
o Hull is measured and found solid, both outside hull and all inside hull

walls.

 Sarsen is built by Mjellem & Karlsen in Norway 1970 and has DNV ice class. Hull is steel and superstructure is aluminium.

 

New Heli-deck

 

o Helicopter deck is new and has hydraulic gangway for passengers to easily move from helicopter deck to reception area in the bridge. The deck also has a fueling and foam fire system. The deck is hinged and conforms to the bow.

 

Diver Beach Club

 

Diver “beach club” in the stern can be lowered 2 meters under sea level. There is room in the hull for a dive decompression chamber.

 

Interior

Accommodation for up to 8 guests in 4 cabins, and up to 38 crew in 23 crew cabins. It is this broker's opinion that fewer crew cabins are needed, even with specialist dive-masters and sub operators. Crew space can be re-configured.

The guest cabins are currently configured as suites with their own living rooms. Experience suggests that guests usually prefer to be in the ship's salon rather than in their cabins. These suites could be reconfigured into more luxury guest cabins.

Much of the furniture and accommodation fabrication is in storage in the shipyard warehouse.
