Fast Patrol Catamaran
Over a period of many years, Robert Allan Ltd. has established a reputation for the design of a diverse nature of many high-performance, successful high-speed patrol craft. These include many small patrol craft in both aluminium and GRP, typically intended for local police, Coast Guard and harbour patrol functions. The following describes many of these vessels.
The RAven Class Patrol boats had their origins with a series of successful 18 metre planing catamarans developed by Robert Allan Ltd. for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. These high-speed, spacious vessels were very successful, and became the prototypes for another series of larger and more robust patrol craft. The catamaran platform is ideally suited to a wide range of patrol functions, providing much more stability and usable space for crew and operational functions than a monohull of equal speed and performance.
The following RAven class designs are currently available:
RAven 1500, RAven 1800, RAven 2000, RAven 2100, RAven 2200
