Description

The 66’ 9” x 24’ catamaran R/V Fulmar, built under contract for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), operates in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuary, and Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary, which are all located off the coast of central California. The R/V Fulmar is the third research vessel and fourth Teknicraft Design catamaran that All American Marine, Inc. has built for NOAA’s National Marine Sanctuary program. The new R/V Fulmar will be used to primarily conduct research and monitoring at three national marine sanctuaries in central California,” said William Douros, West Coast Regional Director for the National Marine Sanctuary Program. “We wanted a vessel that would be stable, functional, safe and fast, so this new catamaran vessel helps us meet demanding offshore challenges across 400 miles of coastline, and nearly 7,500 square miles of ocean. The 66’ semi-displacement catamaran represents all the prominent features of the unique catamarans developed by Teknicraft Design of Auckland, New Zealand including a bow wave-piercer, integrated hydrofoil system, and the signature hull shape that provides a smooth ride while producing extremely low wake wash energy. “The craftsmanship that went into the building of the boat is showcased in the many features that make it a dream to operate and maintain,” states Dave Minard, Captain of R/V Fulmar. The construction of the R/V Fulmar marked the 20th Teknicraft catamaran built by All American Marine, Inc. and notably the builder exceeded the contracted performance parameters by 20% during sea trials.
