New freefall lifeboat from Eide Marine Tech AS (EMT)

EMT has together with their lifeboat factory in China developed a new freefall lifeboat for 64 persons - for a freefall height up to 32 metres.

The lifeboat has a new superstructure design in order to get the water off the superstructure faster than earlier designed freefall lifeboats. And together with the bow, which EMT has used for several years, this will make the entry to the water quite soft.
EMT has already offered the lifeboat with launching appliance to several projects in Norway and abroad.
