ACEBI introduces its new range of rescue boat (semirigid or rigid) systems to suit every marine application : merchant vessels, passenger vessels and offshore.

These boats can be used as Service / Work boats or lifeboats. The design focus is on functionality. We design davits specifically for each type of Service / Work that will be demanded of them. Our special designs ensure  excellent stability and optimal working conditions on board, even in rough sea conditions.

Our rescue boats are delivered with either outboard petrol engines or inboard diesel engines. The boats are built of GRP on aluminium, with a low freeboard to facilitate rescue operations.

Self-bailing, with ample deck space, self-righting capacity and a sturdy foam-filled fender, the boats are supplied with an inboard diesel engine and water jet propulsion unit, or an outboard petrol engine. Our specially-developed davits with shock absorbers and tension systems for severe weather conditions allow our rescue boats to be launched from a mother ship even in heavy sea conditions.

The boats meet current IMO/SOLAS regulations MED 96 / 98 AC.

Our boats and equipment are fully compliant with the latest SOLAS regulations and amendments, and are EC-labelled in accordance with the Marine Equipment Directive.

Life Rafts and Survival Equipment

Our systems fulfil all the latest directive requirements and can match every case, with the option of a fully integrated system (in the ship’s hull) and/or a more traditional davit having variable boom length.
