The new 56-metre vessels, JAZIRAT DALMA and AL DHANNAH, built by Singapore based Penguin International Limited in Batam, Indonesia, can transport up to 192 passengers and 25 vehicles at speeds of up to 39 knots. Each vessel boasts a spacious, air-conditioned passenger deck which provides comfortable seating for 185 passengers, space for an additional seven wheelchair passengers and two large viewing areas at the bow and stern.

Each vessel features a VIP room for eight passengers, two cafés, five bathrooms, and a playroom for children. Ample luggage and cargo spaces have also been included throughout both the passenger and vehicle decks, which are connected via an onboard elevator.
Each vessel is powered by four MTU engines and propelled by Kamewa waterjets with JAZIRAT DALMA and AL DHANNAH designed specifically for extreme temperatures and sandy conditions in the Arabian Gulf.  

The elevated wheelhouse provides each vessel’s captain with excellent lines of sight while the bridge deck also features a crew mess and bathrooms for the vessel’s ten crew.

Ed Dudson, Incat Crowther’s Managing Director, Europe said, “The successful entry into service of JAZIRAT DALMA and AL DHANNAH is testament to the strong collaboration that defined this project. Our team of naval architects has worked closely with shipbuilder Penguin International throughout and we’re proud to see these vessels in operation.”
