Quantus
Delivered in 2008, the ‘Quantus’ has been designed by Wärtsilä Ship Design and is fitted with a complete Wärtsilä propulsion solution, comprising a 12-cylinder Wärtsilä 32 engine driving a reduction gear and a controllable pitch propeller. Wärtsilä also provided the control system for the installation.
The ‘Quantus’ is a modern trawler designed and built for efficient fishing. The vessel incorporates a number of innovative ideas, including a new hull form designed to combine optimum steaming and towing characteristics with fuel efficiency.
