Safehaven Marine proudly announces the delivery of the Punta Do Cruceiro, an Interceptor 48 pilot boat, to the Port of Ferrol in Northern Spain. This milestone represents the 61st pilot boat constructed by Safehaven Marine, further solidifying the company’s reputation for excellence in pilot vessel manufacturing.
Powered by twin Volvo Penta D13 engines, the Punta Do Cruceiro achieves an impressive yet economical operational speed of 24.5 knots, ensuring both efficiency and reliability. One of the standout features of this vessel is its innovative cabin layout, which includes shock mitigation seating for five crew members, along with a comfortable dinette seating area. This unique design enhances crew comfort, and the company expects this configuration to become a popular feature in future Interceptor 48 models.
Safehaven Marine’s Interceptor pilot boats have garnered significant popularity in Northern Spain and Portugal, where their outstanding seakeeping abilities are particularly valued due to the region’s exposure to the Atlantic Ocean. The Punta Do Cruceiro at the Port of Ferrol is set to uphold Safehaven’s reputation for providing vessels that deliver superior performance and reliability in the most challenging waters.
