Our original enclosed RIB 'Aquatech', designed specifically for coastal and inshore survey operations, proved to be dependable, seaworthy and totally suited to the task. She still offers the best combination of capability and mobility for many inshore sites, so we are presently undertaking a major refit to extend her service well into the future.
