MSAR presents its lease concept at NAVDEX 2013: One partner during the boat lifecycle

MSAR Ltd, an established specialist in aluminium boats for search & rescue and patrol operations, shall present a new lifecycle lease concept offered over a full range of services including; design, construction, leasing, training (to STCW 95 standards), maintenance and end-of-life recycling.

MSAR offers construction of a series of hulls from 15 to 42 metres complete with bespoke outfitting of equipment, meeting the needs of a vast array of rescue and patrol boats. Options which are being offered with these semi-custom hulls include; medical, scientific and military equipment, bullet-proofing, secure communications, cameras, tailoring for extreme climates, custom passenger comfort features, extended range and more. Standard engines installed offer a speed ranging from 36 knots up to 42 knots.

Series construction of the hulls enables MSAR to install the best equipment at the lowest cost while ensuring long-term availability of parts.

During the upcoming NAVDEX 2013 (Stand C-024) exhibition MSAR will be featuring three vessels:
» Interceptor with waterjets in patrol version
» Protector with pod drives in SAR version
» The new OPV 42M concept with propeller drives and an additional marine turbine for fast operations

Innovative lifecycle lease
MSAR's lifecycle lease solutions cover acquisition and support for 12 years. The benefits of a single point of contact include the customized design to any specification, 24/7 remote monitoring and technical assistance, annual maintenance, and refitting of vessel and equipment after 6 years.

After the 12 year lease period the customer can choose between a second complete refit with a six-year extension or a new boat and a new lease agreement.

MSAR takes full responsibility for the dismantling and recycling at the end-of-life. An aluminium hull construction enables the possible recycle of over 90% of the material.

Annual maintenance can be provided by a partner who is in proximity to the customer. An MSAR technician will attend to every annual maintenance to assure service quality.

MSAR can offer such lifecycle leasing solutions, based on its outstanding designs and assured realiability of its vessels.

Customer benefits
MSAR provides the latest designs and technologies in the market. Six-yearly refits guarantee customers the latest equipment at no additional cost.

Series construction ensures long-term parts availability and in the event of a failure, assistance will be promptly provided, thus keeping each lay-up to a minimum.

MSAR lifecycle leasing solutions imply a single point of contact, hence simpler procedures
at lower costs – a key benefit for navies and other fleet operators.

Last but not least, MSAR recycles your boats for you.
