If you need it, we can design it!
When a company has been designing successful commercial working craft for more than 85 years, it is likely that the scope of activity will include a wide range of vessel types.
It has been a hallmark of Robert Allan Ltd. that we never shy from a challenge and truly enjoy solving the most unusual design problems. The more unconventional the design challenge, the better we like it! If you need it, we can design it!
Here are a few examples from a vast array of innovative, special vessel types that Robert Allan Ltd. has created over the years:
-
- Crane-equipped work boats – we have designed many crane or derrick-equipped vessels for specialized cargo or equipment lifting duties, always for very specialized missions. These are always demanding and interesting design challenges.
-
- Chevron Legacy – a multi-product floating Marine Fuelling Station in Vancouver Harbour
-
- Sea North II – a unique jet-drive Whale Watching Tour Boat operating in Hudson’s Bay
-
- IBEEV – a pair of Ice-Breaking Emergency Evacuation Vessel built for offshore drilling rig operations in the Caspian Sea
-
- BIG-RIB – a unique concept for a very large Rigid-Hulled Inflatable Boat for use as an Offshore Standby Vessel
-
- Central Coaster – one of many dozens of “self-propelled barges” designed over the years, offering capacity for both tank and deck cargo, serving the many small, isolated communities of the B.C. Coast
-
- CB1 & CB2 – a pair of unique air-sea rescue catamarans designed for the Hong Kong Airport Authority (designed in collaboration with Incat)
-
- McDonald’s Friendship Restaurant – a ferro-cement pontoon-based floating restaurant built for Expo 86 in Vancouver
