Engines

ENGINES
When you build a Lloyds approved vessel you have to design the vessel so that every aspect of the build has been thought out and approved BEFORE construction. The designers of this vessel made sure all aspects of this vessel were thoroughly examined to provide a vessel that would operate in safety in any part of the world. The engine room for instance is both heat and sound insulated with approved materials from the rest of the vessel. Ventilation is via vents in the deck house sides and as an added safety feature these are ducted internally to prevent water ingress ate extreme heel angles. The designers have calculated the amount of ventilation required not only for the machinery but for the Crew on board as well. Wright International Ltd WIL 1607 10m WORKBOATS has been designed around the hull and the choice of engines by discussion with the buyer.

EXAMPLE
This 10m WORKBOAT has been designed round the twin ME432 STi YAMAHA stern drive with its in-line 6 cylinder 24 valve engines delivering 285 BHP (212kW/3600 rpm) at around 3600rpm. With its 94mm Bore and 100mm Stroke delivering 4.16 Litres displacement. These engines have direct fuel injection and are turbo charged to deliver the power to the TRP (Twin counter rotating propellers) allowing this 10m WORKBOAT to work at up to 30 Knots. The cooling system is closed circuit sea water pump and filter system as standard. This combination combines power, fuel efficiency, smooth ride and with the exhaust expelled through the propellers central hub at vastly reduced noise. This is perfect if you have fee paying guests on board or if you are working in or around Marinas.

Any WORKBOAT has to be able to deliver its crew on demand and that is where the manufacturers of these WIL 1607 10m WORKBOATS have designed in reliability in every aspect of the construction. Take for instance the cooling of these engines. 10M WORKBOATS tend to be used where the operator has his mind on the job and not on the boat he has left that to the manufacturer to build in reliability and performance. This means everything has to revolve round this and the manufacturers taking this into consideration designed the engines to be cooled with their own independent filtered sea water. The engines themselves are mounted on vibration proof mountings on strong bearers. The manufacturers realized that these vessels could be sold to any part of the world and therefore have based the reliability on ensuring that every aspect of the design recognizes this as a principle to work to. They have designed in simplicity of maintaining the engines by allowing good clear access for inspection, observation and routine maintenance and minor repairs to be carried out.

The Wright International Ltd  WIL 1607 10M WORKBOATS have been designed as you will see in each of the sections with safety in mind. An example in the engine room is the way the engines are started. A single pole isolation switch is provided for each engine and is mounted on the helmsman`s control panel. This simple but effective method of starting the engine prevents accidental starting of the engines during routine maintenance.

The manufacturers of the WIL 1607 10m WORKBOATS has put safety before cost. Too often these days the construction is centred round cost before safety. An example of this is the Bilge Pump. Being a clutch operated engine driven bilge pump it is designed to operate by drawing from a bilge main and discharging over the side. This pump is also able to draw water from a filtered sea water supply to provide water for fire and act as a deck wash main.

BUNKERAGE
Wright International Ltd WIL 1607 10m WORKBOATS are designed to provide the operators to maximize the potential of these superb vessels. The designers of this vessel taking into consideration how economical they are to run designed the bunkerage on board to be 1100 Litres. This fuel is stored in two aluminium tanks to keep the weight down. The tanks are well baffled to stop the fuel slopping around and they are each fitted with inspection covers and sight gauges. They are filled via water tight, flush deck connections. Again for safety they have designed the tanks so that they can deliver the fuel to the engine from one or both tanks to each engine. The emergency shut offs are operated by and found on the control station at the helm. Duplex fuel filters (changeover type) are fitted to each supply.

ELECTRICAL
The main engines are fitted with alternator units (engine maker supply) charging 4 12-volt batteries linked in series to provide a split 24-volt system, starter batteries/boat load batteries. The main distribution supply is through breaker switches. Electrical power is supplied from Battery Sets which are housed in suitably well ventilated box for supplying the power to lighting, engine starting and essential services. Emergency services are distributed through a separate board for automatic operation of the electric bilge pumps and fire detection alarm systems.

FIRE DETECTION
Probably one of the worst nightmares is to have a fire at sea. The manufacturers of these Wright International Ltd WIL 1607 10m WORKBOATS did not miss when they designed in the heat detection system with alarms taken back to the control panel at the helm. A remotely operated extinguisher system is installed in the engine space.

BILGE PUMPS and ALARMS
Every boat takes on some amount of water and when the designers of this boat looked at where it was to be used, the weather it could be used in and the fact that these vessels are usually on call 24/7, they made sure the pumps were there to support it. There are 3 (three) electric bilge pumps fitted with float switch triggers in each main compartment and there is also one manual bilge pump. The bilge pumps all discharge above the water line as an additional safety feature. Scuppers cut above the non slip deck

ALARMS
High level alarms are included with indicators in the wheelhouse.

EXHAUSTS
With more and more attention being focused on the environment the exhaust system on board these vessels is emitted through the central hub of the propellers to reduce the noise.

Construction

10M WORKBOATS are manufactured all over the world in aluminium, GRP and steel they are all trying to find the market they have been designed to serve. Nowadays with Governments all over the world cutting back on expenditure it is very easy to fall into the price driven trap. This is where manufacturers are placing the importance of cost before safety. Wright International Ltd has been long aware that something may cost less initially only proving to be more expensive in the long run with component failure and lack of reliability. When Wright International Ltd sat down with our designers we stressed there was another way and that was to design inherent strength and safety into the vessels by creating a range of vessels and not one vessel for all.

Wright International Ltd is proud to be able to Design, Fund, Build and Deliver these vessels to anywhere in the world. This Wright International Ltd WIL 1607 10m WORKBOATS has been specifically for use in seas up to force 6, Recreational Craft Directive : Design Category B at speeds of up to 30 Knots and constructed to comply with Lloyds Register of Shipping. The GRP construction of these 10M WORKBOATS is based on the well proven hull that is the 33 Ft Workboat. The deep `V` planning hull with the integral spray rails provides a comfortable and safe ride across a wide range of speeds and sea conditions. The manufacturers have designed a very beamy, deep V-shaped hull with a three chine configuration. The outer chine is massive, it has a four degree downturn and all three chines run right through to the transom. The result is an extremely smooth comfortable fast ride for up to fourteen persons. This makes these vessels ideal as safety standby vessels, Crew boats, Dive Charter Vessels, Fishing vessels, WORKBOATS, Fishfarm boats, Windfarm work and of course Survey Work.

10M WORKBOATS throughout the world require to be coded and that is why our designers selected Lloyds Register of Shipping Special Service Craft for the design of the hull, deck and deck house. The machinery and equipment complies with the MCA Cat 2 60 miles from safe haven and Recreational Craft Directive : Design Category B with maximum of 14 persons on board. Both the Manufacturers and Wright International Ltd are well aware that different regions of the world may require alternative manning levels and crew numbers to comply with their authorities that is why these vessels are individually designed and not mass produced.

Cathodic Protection
An approved system of sacrificial cathodic protection is installed.

Painting
The main hull is double gel coated in white, the first layer is in isophthalmic resin.
The lower hull is in white with appropriate water-line mark above the anti foul paint.
The painting scheme and anti-fouling, including all the preparation is as recommended and specified by an approved marine paint supplier.
