Description

The ‘ Sussex ’ is a Wildcat 36 catamaran launched this month for her owner Michael Keane, who is based on the UK ’s South East Coast . The vessel features the large, full beam superstructure option, especially modified to provide a large, spacious aft work deck with a covered ‘shelter area’. Michael operates a commercial dive charter business so his main objective was to build a fast, stable platform for divers to operate from. Featuring a transom mounted aluminium divers lift on the st/bd hull, and a back up dive ladder on the port hull, both accessed through wide, substantial transom doors. Diver recovery is further aided by the use of bow and stern thrusters capable of being operated from the transom, as well as the flybridge, which itself is a major safety feature in providing a high vantage point for diver location and recovery. Stainless steel seating modules are fitted in the aft cockpit and in addition provide storage for the diver’s air bottles and equipment.
