ConCat Survey Cat Trolls for Buyers Kongsberg Maritime and Uniteam International are pursuing new clients by placing them directly on the ConCat Survey Catamaran, with the intent of delivering a first-hand experience of the innovative boat's capabilities. Demonstrations of the turnkey survey platform ConCat have now started across the U.S., U.K. and Canada. ConCat is fitted with Kongsberg high per- formance navigation and surveying equip- ment, factory installed and calibrated. Proving that big things do come in small packages, the vessel is transportable in an ISO 40 ft. container, making it mobile and flexibile. ConCat is flexible in another man- ner, as it can be designed to suit a cus- tomer's requirement, taking into account required survey performance and logistical considerations. Oslo based Uniteam International, is an experienced manufactur- er and supplier of turn-key mobile systems for military and commercial customers world-wide. Increased demand for mobility has positioned the Uniteam range of special purpose vessels, shelters and complete sys- tems in focus. Freddy P0hner at Kongsberg Maritime said, "In addition to displaying the integrated ConCat vessel itself, we are look- ing forward to demonstrating Kongsberg Maritime's new EM3002 Multibeam Echosounder and the EA400 Survey System package, alongside Uniteam who will be host to a marketing offensive for its entire prod- uct range."
