Netherlands-headquartered TBV Marine Systems, part of High-Tech Solutions & Design B.V., has recently finished the commissioning for eight FRC[ds_preview]/RHIB Launch and Recovery systems (LARS) that have been delivered for four new vessels ordered by the Kuwait Coast Guard from the Zamil Offshore Shipyard in Saudi Arabia. For this project, the LARS was designed to carry a craft with a length of nearly 9m, with a maximum weight of 6t. For each vessel, the stern ramp was designed to carry two vessel launch systems, which were both powered by one hydraulic power unit. TBV says that by means of a creative team of engineers and its group of partners, the project for the Kuwait Coast Guard has successfully been commissioned to the satisfaction of the shipyard and the final customer.
