DMC wins first US multi-vessel order
Four packages comprising steering gear and rudders, five winches and two towing pin systems, will be supplied to US shipbuilder C&C Marine & Repair for four new-build Multi Cats 3013 workboats.
The first two vessels will be delivered to Callan Marine and the second two vessels will be built ‘on spec’ by C&C Marine & Repair for sale or lease to the US market.
“It gives us great pleasure to be able to show to the US market that we design and build equipment that vessel owners and operators can depend on for reliability and minimal downtime over the long term,” said Ronald Beekhof, sales manager Damen Marine Components.
Each of the 30-metre, multi-purpose Multi Cats will be fitted with DMC piston-type steering gear, two tugger winches, an anchor winch, a towing winch, an anchor handling winch and two towing pin systems rated 50 and 80 tonnes respectively.
DMC will also be supplying a triple rudder system for each vessel, produced in-house to a third-party design.
The four Multi Cats 3013 will be delivered over the course of 2023.
