134ft Survey Catamaran

The 134’ x 37’ aluminum research vessel built originally for C & C Technologies, Inc. (C & C) of Lafayette, La, was one of the first catamarans featuring quad propeller propulsion and was custom designed. The catamaran design offers great seakeeping ability which allows the survey team to operate in all kinds of weather.

Sea Scout’s two engine rooms are each equipped with a C32 ACERT 1,600 bhp diesel engine, a C18 ACERT 553 bhp diesel engine and a C6.6 170 ekW generator, all supplied by Caterpillar. The vessel can travel to a work site on all four engines at a cruising speed of 26 knots. At the job site it runs on the smaller two engines coupled to ZF Marine gears with trolling valves to provide an economical speed range from 4 to 11 knots. For long range capabilities, the vessel has a fuel tank capacity of 6,600 gallons, plus two reserve tanks provide an additional capacity of 4,400 gallons. Ballast tanks are located fore and aft to ensure optimal trim in various loading conditions.

The vessel is certified under ABS international load line standards and contains a certificate of inspection under USCG subchapter “T” regulations. Sea Scout was built to be SOLAS compliant and may be deployed internationally in the future. The wide and open aft deck is completely reconfigurable depending on the mission. The deck was reinforced to accommodate an equipment load of over 80,000 lbs. Inside, the main deck and foc’sles are dedicated to crew accommodations, which comprise a commercial galley, walk-in cooler, lounge, fitness facility, laundry room, 4 heads, and 12 staterooms with a sleeping complement of 26 berths. The 01 deck encompasses the survey lab, server room, and data processing office. The pilot house is on a raised mezzanine level to provide 360 degree visibility, while maintaining a profile with low wind resistance.

Sea Scout’s decks are complemented with a 14,000 lbs. stern A-frame, a 10,000 lbs. side A-frame, 16’ Zodiac skiff, and 5 ton hydraulic crane.  The Sea Scout has two transducer pods integrated into the hulls. The main deployable sonar strut is located aft of the superstructure and deploys through a large moon pool located on centerline. Two additional struts are located in the sponsons and deploy through 17” watertight valves in the hulls.
