As the 2013 Seawork International Show approaches, UK based marine exhaust specialist, Halyard, has announced yet another commercial success story with renowned Great Yarmouth based boat builder Alicat Workboats, to ensure its new four WFSV (Wind Farm Support Vessels) remain quiet on the water and to provide increased comfort for those on board.

With a growing need for all commercial vessels to be built with increasingly high levels of safety, reduced noise levels and enhanced crew comfort, Alicat Workboats has commissioned Halyard - internationally known and respected for its innovative design solutions - to design, build and install a full exhaust silencer system, for all four of its new state-of-the-art Offshore Wind Farm Service  Vessels.

Being an experienced all-round naval architect, Vripack takes great pleasure in designing a 43ft supply vessel together with Ribbon Yachts in the Netherlands. And by looking at the correct proportions between line and surface, one can easily see that the design of the agile and modern Ribbon 45 SC is the foundation for the sturdy Ribbon Offshore. 

Vripack’s challenge is to fit all their practical knowledge into this perfect design without having to make any concessions. To accomplish this task, close collaboration with Ribbon Yachts takes place. This will result in a strong design with the most practical size and ergonomic layout in which the characteristics of the Ribbon 45 SC will be kept as much as possible.
