Catamarans
Lightweight aluminum catamarans as research platforms have been around for a long time. Stability and the ability to operate in shallow waters are some of the obvious advantages.
Konstelacja
Konstelacja was built and delivered to the Maritime Office of Gdynia in the spring of 2019.
The survey catamaran is built and equipped for shallow waters and for conducting hydrographic measurements and testing navigability conditions, depth of fairways, anchorages and ports – for the purpose of ensuring navigational safety of shipping.
