About our Research Vessels
Legacy Marine has built a number of <25GT vessels for coastal research. We specialize in vessels that have a high degree of automation and built-in redundancy which reduces manning requirements to keep operational costs as low as possible. Our catamaran design provides a very stable work platform with a large working deck. Waterjet propulsion with dual helm stations and DP provide for accurate station keeping. The vessels can accommodate air-conditioning systems, electrical power generators, hydraulic power units in accordance with client requirements. Fit out is done to client specifications and can cater for a wide variety of client supplied scientific equipment and accommodation options.

About our Dive Support Vessels
Legacy Marine builds dive support vessels for the O&G industry with the two most modern ones being built for a French client who provides offshore diving and ROV services to the O&G industry. These vessels were designed by Incat Crowther and built under full class survey to ABS A1(E), AMS, HSC Coastal Craft. Where a large number of these small dive support vessels are converted monohull crew boats, our clients chose a catamaran design to maximise stability and deck space. These were the first catamaran designs to be fitted with a “surfer type bow” to enable crew transfers from oil and gas platforms.The vessels are equipped with a vast array of dive systems including a 3-man air dive station, underwater high-pressure washers, underwater welding, and hydraulic tools. The aft deck is rigged to support safe dive operations. The vessels are rated for 200nm offshore operations. For full vessel specification please do not hesitate to contact us.

About our OPL Vessels
Legacy Marine builds a variety of OPL Supply Vessels. The vessels are used for crew transfers for passing ships or for resupply of ships at anchor. The models offered have been designed in conjunction with experienced OPL fleet owners and take into consideration good visibility, safety during crew transfers, vulnerability to swinging crane hooks and all the typical hazards associated with OPL work. The vessels are usually under 25GT to reduce operational costs. Maneuverability and stability are key to conducting successful OPL operations which makes the catamaran type hull well suited to this purpose. These vessels typically have a large unobstructed aft deck and a foredeck designed specifically for crew transfers.
