Multi Purpose Workboat

WRIGHT INTERNATIONAL LTD is delighted to offer these Multipurpose Workboats direct from the manufacturer. When you look at the impressive rang of tools this vessel has available to it, you can see why they are called Multipurpose Workboats. At just over 7m in length and with a 10 Tonne displacement they make very good investments for anyone interested in keeping our waterways free of pollution and weed. They are road transportable allowing the one vessel to operate in may places if required and also able to launch the vessel where the weed has been so overgrown it would not be able to navigate by any other means. The craft has been designed to offer a very durable vessel that requires minimum maintenance and has an almost global presence due to repeat orders from very satisfied customers.

The wide range of tools including – Mesh Scoop, Crane, Work Platform, Weed Ripper, Cutter Bucket, Double 4 (multipurpose) Bucket, Log Grapple, Dispersant Spray Unit, Silt Bucket, Face Shovel all make this an essential tool for any port to have available to it. This vessel can turn 360 deg within its own length so as not to miss debris that other vessels would have to leave behind. Manufactured and painted in your own livery by arrangement with the manufacturers, these vessels have to represent the best investment any port authority or private company can make.

Being such a robust and essential tool for our ever growing eco awareness, Wright International Ltd is delighted to report that our sister company Wright International Marine Finance is waiting on your call to offer a wide range of finance options available to you for the purchase of one of these vessels and the range of tools you wish to use.

Engines

This vessel has been designed to have the minimum of maintenance so that means it has to have the most reliable of parts fitted to achieve this. That is why the Manufacturers after careful deliberation settled for the ubiquitous Perkins sabre M130C engine. The normally aspirated 110 HP at 2000rpm. The engines working in the environment that they are designed to do, have been designed with closed loop keel cooling system. This allows the vessel to operate without fouling the intakes with debris. Should the waters be too warm for keel cooling then the manufacturers can work with you to design a sea water system through heat exchangers as an alternative.

With spares available in every port, it makes sense to make life simple for the owner operators. The reverse Gearbox has a heavy duty multi plate which is oil actuated and has an Ahead or Astern 2:1 reduction. The power is then transmitted down the 50mm stainless steel shaft through the bronze or cutless bearings with the soft packing stuffing box and gland, lubricator and sand excluder. Lubrication being Marine grade grease. At the end of the shaft is the right handed three blade manganese propeller fitted with 635 x 393mm pitch. For added protection the manufacturers install a rope stripper to the prop to prevent fouling when in use.

Construction

This rugged shallow draft Multipurpose Workboat is designed to be used in Harbours and Inland pollution control and clean operations. The construction is simple as it is a steel box form with bluff bow and shaped stern. It is rigidly constructed in 6mm Lloyds Grade A plate with continuous welded butts and seams. It has longitudinally stiffened channel section girders also forming the bed for the main engine and hydraulic pump. The load is dispersed on heels of hydraulically operated scoop loader beams, rams etc through the interconnection of the channel section pillars.

The Keel Plate is 12mm and ALL steel is Lloyds Grade A plate. Transverse strength is by angle bar intermittently welded at 609mm intervals with robust all welded construction to floors and curlings / beams by lapped brackets. The shaped stern is stiffened at forward end of transom space by internal section post. The external protection at the bottom is by two parallel keel chocks and at the sides by horizontal wood fenders through bolted to suitably spaced and welded retaining angle brackets.

The shaped rudder is of suitably strengthened and stiffened single 6mm plate.

The decks are made of 6mm checker plate.

Decking Equipment

This Multipurpose Workboat has been designed to clean up our rivers and canals and has many tools to assist in this operation.

DEBRIS COLLECTION
This is the most common usage of this vessel and as such has a general purpose close mesh scoop attachment 2.75 x 1.06 x 0.91mm in size, this attachment has:-
•Max lift capacity (weight) per scoop of 750kg
•Max capacity (volume) per scoop 2.5m3
•Max lift height (above keel) 3.2m
•Max reach below waterline 1.07m

The heavy duty box steel construction with close mesh capable of reaching approximately 1.07m (depending on draft) below waterline when tilted and of lifting to a maximum height of 3.2m above the keel.

PAYLOAD
Under normal operating conditions a payload of 750kg (1500Lbs) can be elevated to a maximum height of 3.2m (10 Ft 6 Ins) above keel without adverse effect on crafts stability. This is having due regard to the dynamic force induced on the craft by 508mm (20 Ins) waves coming side on and the possibility of them synchronising with the roll of the hull.
