[contextly_sidebar id=”9yI2mflySXLUlo0NTj8vTjLegB5KOzbY”]These ship photos from the gCaptain archives are from off the coast of Ireland where Safehaven Marine conducted sea trials for one of its Interceptor 48s, a self-righting all weather pilot and rescue boat. Sea trials were held off Cork Harbour, Ireland during a series of storms in 2013 which maxed out at winds of Force 11 and 20 foot seas.
The Interceptor 48 is fitted with Volvo D13 500hp (rating 1, heavy duty continuous) engines which provide the vessel with an operational speed of 25 knots light and 24 knots fully loaded.
The vessel features a 230nm range with crew capacity of 7 in her main cabin with additional seating for up to 6 in her forward cabin.
The vessel shown in these photos is the 7th Interceptor 48 built by Ireland-based Seahaven Marine.
