During rescue operations, the IGSU vessel has the capacity to evacuate up to 50 persons to safety. She is also equipped to provide emergency medical support, including mobile resuscitation and extrication capabilities.

The vessel features a near-vertical wave-piercing bow to guarantee improved seakeeping at high speeds as well as low resistance resulting in more fuel-efficient operation.

MAI 0101 has a steel hull, an aluminium superstructure, an LOA of 50.1 metres, a beam of 9.4 metres, a draught of 3.5 metres, and space for up to 28 crewmembers.

The propulsion will deliver speeds of up to 29.5 knots and a range of 2,900 nautical miles.
