Taiwanese offshore vessel operator Ventus Marine, a subsidiary of marine services provider PSA Marine, has taken delivery of a new catamaran crewboat built by Strategic Marine of Singapore.
Ventus Dajia is the second in a new series of two 27-metre vessels ordered by Ventus Marine from Strategic Marine. Design work on the crewboat was undertaken in collaboration with BMT.
Strategic Marine said the new crewboat is tailored to withstand demanding offshore environments while controllable-pitch propellers and bow thrusters will deliver enhanced manoeuvrability. An active fender system is also installed.
Cargo can be transported on the open forward deck, which is fitted with a knuckle boom crane. The upper deck wheelhouse has forward-leaning windscreens to help reduce glare.
The crewboat is one of four ordered by PSA Marine for operation by its entities in Taiwan and Europe in support of offshore wind markets in the two regions.
Ventus Daan, the first 27-metre crewboat, was handed over to Ventus Marine in 2025.
