Earlier this year Dalby Offshore Renewables purchased two new crew transfer vessels from Alicat Workboats of Great Yarmouth. Prior to purchasing the vessels they put the Alicat through its paces.
The vessel passed various sea trials and an exhaustive evaluation process with flying colours and stood out as a superior vessel.
Following on from this Dalby was so impressed with the first two vessels that they have purchased boat 12 directly from the production line further strengthening the relationship between the two organisations.
