Rostein Installs Wavefoil In Their Next Wellboat

Rostein AS’s new live fish carrier will be equipped with Wavefoil!

With a wingspan of almost eight meters, a foil module is installed in the bow and will contribute to damping accelerations and fuel savings. 

Building number 71 at Larsnes Mek. Verksted As thus takes Ro Sailor’s design a step further with the intention of increasing comfort and reducing consumption.

Skipskompetanse have worked closely with Wavefoil, Rostein and Larsnes Mek to adapt the hull and arrangement to the foil module and we look forward to seeing the first well boat with the equipment installed!

This will be the first vessel in this segment for Wavefoil™ and they are honoured to contribute to a more energy efficient and sustainable operation of this vessel.
