The Damen Group has designed and sold the Damen Stan Patrol 3307 -- part of its family of Damen Stan Patrol vessels of different sizes.

Design

The vessels employ an axe-bow, a new design that Damen claims improves seakeeping.[1] The bow's leading edge is vertical, where most ships have a diagonal leading edge. The diagonal leading edge causes the bow to have more buoyancy when struck by a big wave, which increases the vessel's tendency to pitch and yaw.[2] The model 3307 is 33 m (108.27 ft) long and 7 m (22.97 ft) wide.

The patrol vessel design is based on an earlier fast crew delivery vessel, commonly employed servicing offshore oil platforms.
