Manor Renewable Energy (MRE) is pleased to announce the completion of their latest Wind Farm Service Vessel build for the offshore wind sector, the Manor Endurance.
The build of the Manor Endurance follows the success of her sister vessel, the Manor Venture, also built at the Manor Marine shipyard in Portland, Dorset; since her launch in 2017 the Manor Venture has worked on several offshore wind projects including temporary power provision and dive inspection works.
Valued at over £4 million and following a year-long build, the Manor Endurance embraces the use of cutting-edge hybrid technology, whilst maximising the accommodation, deck space and cargo carrying capacity.
The build utilised over 30 skilled personnel from the Manor Marine workforce, with support from numerous local suppliers and contractors; she utilises state-of-the-art quad IPS 900 propulsion units and has been built with both efficiency and safety as paramount.
The naming ceremony of the Manor Endurance took place on Tuesday 25th August at the Manor Marine shipyard in Portland Port, with a visit from Richard Drax MP for South Dorset and Mayor of Portland, Sandy West, alongside a traditional blessing of the boat.
The Manor Endurance will be available for long-term charter from Thursday 10th September.
