Henry Mayhew, MD of Ecocats, anticipates environmental concerns beginning to influence all forms of vessel choice around the globe. The PLA is leading other ports and harbour authorities in looking at green solutions. The ability to replace thirsty monohull launches with more economical and functionally-equivalent Ecocats will enhance port and river authorities environmental credentials as well as their bottom lines.

Captain Ray Blair, a PLA Deputy Harbour Master, cites other advantages. The new Chelsea and Richmond launches have been built specifically to meet our requirements. We involved the crews of the existing launches fully in their specification, with the objective of giving them a better working platform. The 10 metre Ecocat provides just that. Its more stable and has a much bigger and more secure deck area. It has low freeboard, and with entry doors almost on the waterline recovery of casualties and debris from the water is much easier than previously. The boats turn in their own length, and at half the draught of the monohulls, can operate closer to banks and shoals, which is very important at low water.
