On Friday 30th November 2018 the Transport Minister Dr. Ian Borg inaugurated a new pilot boat JULIET 1 to the Malta Maritime Pilots.

She was built by Safehaven Marine as JULIET (1 was added in Malta during November), the third pilot vessel to be supplied to Malta by Safehaven.

She has an operational speed of 25 knots, powered by a pair of Scania DI13 375kW engines. She’s a Safehaven Marine Interceptor 48 Class with length overall as 15 metres.

The vessel is designed for dual roles of crew transfer and pilotage and has seating capacity for up to 14 persons in the main cabin. JULIET 1 is also fitted with a galley, spacious seating area, separate heads and electrical compartment as well as luggage storage and extra berths.

She was shipped to Malta as deck cargo aboard the MPP ship EEMSLIFT HENDRIKA arriving on Saturday 13th October with her agents as O&S Shipping  – www.oands.com.mt
