SAFEHAVEN MARINE DELIVER ‘P&O SAHM’, AN 18M INTERCEPTOR 60 PILOT TO P&O MARITIME

Safehaven Marine have launched ‘P&O Sahm’ the third of our 18m Interceptor 60 Pilots delivered in the last 6mths, following sisterships ‘Murshid’ and ‘Rubban’ delivered to DP World. Built for P&O Maritime for their pilotage operations in the GCC region. ‘P&O Sahm’ is the 5th pilot boat supplied to P&O Maritime during a very long standing relationship with Safehaven Marine, their first pilot boat being supplied nearly 10 years ago in early 2016. She represents the 65th pilot boat Safehaven have delivered globally.

With an operational speed of 28kts from a pair of 700hp C18 Caterpillar engines, she accommodates 11 pilots and crew in fully air-conditioned accommodation with full live aboard facilities. Heavily fendered for tough pilotage operations incorporating Safehavens sacrificial boarding fender and transom MOB recovery platform. The Interceptor 60 design features spacious fore and aft deck areas, a very sea kindly and easily driven hull and is a very fine looking pilot vessel indeed.

Safehaven are delighted to have handed her over to P&O Maritime continuing our strong relationship.
