The Arkona
One of its most high-performance and modern SAR vessels is the ARKONA; stationed in Sassnitz ( NE German state of Mecklenburg-West Pomerania on the Baltic coast ), it has a fire extinguishing capacity of 36,000 litres/min. A special structural design gives the ARKONA outstanding nautical capabilities in ground swell and breakers and - even in the most difficult circumstances - allows it to be manoeuvred alongside ships in dist- ress. The ARKONA is powered by an MTU diesel engine with 1,200 kW (1,632 h.p.) and two MWM diesel engines each with 574 kW (781 h.p.). Speed: 24 knots (approx. 44.5 km/h); range: 2,300 nautical miles. It has a crew of 9, 4 of whom are perma- nently on board. The two remote-controlled fire extinguisher - monitors located on the upper navigating stand are capable of - directing around 2,200qm of water per hour over a distance of - about 130 m right into a fire source. Two further monitors can be connected up tor discharging foam compound; these are smaller - with a capacity of 144qm each per hour. The ARKONA is also - equipped with a board hospital tor first-aid treatment, including hot-air artificial respiration equipment and an ECG telemetry - system. With its small draught, the launch located in a cradle on the afterdeck is ideal for service in shallow waters and reaches speeds of up to 17 knots (approx. 30 km/h).
