Pelmatic High-Speed Fast Ferry Designed For Optimal Loading/Unloading Based on its experience in commer- cial and military ship design, Pelmatic has developed a series of high-speed monohull ferries for passengers and cars. The vessels range in size from 104ft. (32 m) to41 Oft. (125 m). The design philosophy of the new series is represented by Pelmatic's HS710, which was made to ensure optimum logistics of loading and unloading of vehicles to reduce handling time in port. Base con- cepts are designed for composite, alu- minum or steel hulls depending on size and customer preference. The Pelmatic HS710 is a monohull car/passenger high-speed ferry with a capacity of 450 passengers and 43 cars, at an overall length of 232 ft. (71 m), with one passenger deck and two car decks. The vessel is intended for medium-range coastal service. The service speed is approximately 33 knots laden. The hull has a hard chine V-hull form to ensure optimum seakeeping, and the vessel is equipped with an active stabilization system in order to increase passenger comfort. Propulsion is arranged with four waterjets coupled to four high-speed diesel engines via reduction gears. The system concentrates on efficiency and maneuverability, again reducing time in port. Composite shafts have been selected to attain a more favorable weight distribution, allowing for an increased payload. Pelmatic is also focusing on monohull vessels for their high-speed designs, as the monohull offers good seakeeping in rough conditions and a high load car- rying capacity.
