The Yacht Support range of vessels now provides the ultimate technical area for serious superyacht helicopter operations, a fully enclosed hangar, without sacrificing luxury spaces on board the mother yacht. DAMEN and AMELS have developed this amazing new option for the successful 67-metre Sea Axe 6711 fast yacht support vessel, in response to client feedback.
New Heli Hangar option for 67m Sea Axe 6711 Fast Yacht Support Vessel developed by DAMEN and AMELS
Fully-certified superyacht helicopter hangar
The new hangar is one of the benefits of the well-equipped support vessels built by DAMEN, and customised to the particular requirements of superyacht owners and finished to superyacht standards. The LY3 / MCA fully certified hangar shelters up to the size of a Eurocopter AS365. The helicopter emerges through opening doors. A platform lift mechanism supports a take-off weight of 5,000 kg.
Dive centre
An alternative option for the Sea Axe 6711 superyacht support vessel is a fully kitted-out 45.5 square-metre professional dive centre. This option includes its own Lloyd’s Register-certified double lock decompression chamber, four-point filling station and storage area.
