Catamarans — survey platforms
§ 04 — Survey Platforms

Catamarans

Twin-hull stability and shallow drafts produce an instrument-grade work platform — ideal for hydrographic survey, research, and sensitive nearshore installations.
§ 01About the Catamarans

Catamarans

When sensors need a steady, quiet platform, a catamaran delivers it. Twin-hull stability at station, a shallow draft for nearshore access, and a modular instrument deck let crews mount and reconfigure equipment as programs change.

Low-vibration hybrid options are available where instrument fidelity is paramount.
