SINGAPORE – Strategic Marine has delivered the first of two 42-m (138-ft) fast crew boats (FCB) to Centus Marine. Â
The Centus Nine is the ninth vessel built by Strategic Marine to enter Centus Marine’s fleet and follows the delivery of a 40-m (131-ft) FCB in February 2021. The second vessel is expected to be delivered in 4Q 2021.
The Centus Nine has new features and additions such as dedicated bow loading, an enlarged wheelhouse and personnel cabins based on feedback from Centus’ customers and operational staff.
