The buoy tender is a steel single-hull vessel with characteristic features: curved beams (beam camber), a raised bow (forecastle), a saddle-shaped stern, and a partially recessed superstructure. The wheelhouse, made of light aluminum-magnesium alloy, is located above the rest of the superstructure. To improve maneuverability, the vessel is equipped with a bow thruster. For working with navigation marks, a crane-manipulator is installed on board, capable of lifting loads up to 1 ton.

The vessel is equipped with advanced technologies for managing the power plant, servicing navigation equipment on inland waterways, as well as modern communication and navigation systems. The vessel is designed to service floating and stationary navigation marks, monitor fairway depths, and escort barges with a carrying capacity of up to 400 tons by pushing.

  • length overall — 26.8 m
  • width overall — 4.2 m
  • draft at DWL — 1 m
