The Challenge
We were contacted by First Responders on a barrier island off the coast of Queensland, who needed a boat with the capacity to function like an ambulance. The vessel needed to be fast, safe and capable of providing emergency medical services. Additionally, it required an electrical system robust enough to handle refrigeration and other essential emergency equipment. The challenge was to design a craft that could meet these specific requirements and operate efficiently in demanding conditions.
Our Solution
To address the client’s needs, we conducted detailed consultations to understand their specific requirements. Using our advanced CAD-CAM and CNC machinery, we designed a solution that we knew could be produced with precision. Our skilled welders then executed the modifications on a commercial vessel, ensuring all components were seamlessly integrated. The design included spaces for medical equipment, a patient bed, secure storage and an electrical system capable of supporting refrigeration and other emergency devices, all while maintaining the vessel’s speed and safety.
The Result
The project resulted in a highly capable ambulance boat that exceeded the client’s expectations. The customised vessel provided a safe and efficient solution for transporting patients and delivering emergency medical care. This successful project underscored our understanding that equipment for first responders must be designed intuitively, supporting collaborative efforts to heal the sick and alleviate suffering.
