Overview
Deep Ocean Surveyor
This is a working survey ship kept in top condition. She has just came off the dry dock in Jan 2014 and is ready for conversion to a stern ramp supply vessel.
All systems are working and the vessel is ABS Loadline and SOLAS unrestricted Ocean Service.
Powered by Cat mains and fully operational she is constantly maintained and in tip top condition.
She can stay out on the job for 75 days straight and is fitted out with comforts to keep survey teams comfortable while on the job. Cool AC and new galley equipment make her a nice vessel.
The survey equipment would be removed allowing a clear free back deck ideal for hauling containers or cargo. She is fitted with a 10 ton deck crane with has a 40ft reach. The stern ramp was removed and no longer available however the kingpins are still in place.
The vessel is currently alongside at the Bradford Marine Bahamas shipyard in Freeport Harbor and easy to view. She periodically does charters but still is accessible.
