Evening Gents, a friend was camping last weekend and took a snap of this asymmetrical catamaran. I assume it is a work vessel of some type but wondered if anyone knew what it is etc?

It reminds me of an Australian vessel which was built from two unequal hulls back in the ninteenth century![/size][/font][/color]

Akira:
No idea, but the port hull's bow looks an aweful lot like a Perry cl FFG.

Andyn:
Research Vessel Triton. It's a trimaran :-))

BrianB6:
Quite a bit about her on Google under RV Triton.   She has been in Oz patrolling our northern shores (presumably as a stand in whilst the Border Foce was short of Cape Class patrol vessels) but is currently back in Great Yarmouth.

ballastanksian:

Thank you chaps! I told my friend what she was thanks to your assistance and I will look her up like I suggested he should.


Ta again  :-))
