"Thanks to the motion control system the ride was very comfortable" he said. In this application, the state-of- the-art motion control system uses hydraulically actuated interceptors fitted aft to provide motion damping as well as control of running trim. The interceptors are controlled by commands from a cen- tral unit which receives motion data from an array of onboard sensors, com- putes the required damping forces, and then issues the command signals. Circle 98 on Reader Service Card The inner two lanes offer a clear height of 9.5 ft. while the outer lanes are 8.5 ft. high. The maximum axle load is up to 3.5 tons. The 9.5 ft. high forward door slides open to facilitate drive-through loading, thus keeping turnaround times to a minimum. The catamaran is powered by four MTU 16V 4000 M70 diesel engines, each producing 2,320 kW at 2,000 rpm. which is sufficient for service speeds of 34 knots at 90% Maximum Continuous Rating.
