Yuchai Lifeboat Capstan Successfully Matched with High-speed Rescue Boat

On December 22, at the dock of Beihai Maritime Rescue Volunteer Emergency Response Base, the rescue boat "Feiying No.1", assembled with Yuchai YCV42 lifeboat capstan, rose and fell rhythmically against the wind and waves.


Two months ago, the boat was put on hold due to power system fault and almost scrapped. Thanks to Yuchai YCV42, the boat was reborn. The complete rescue boat is 10.80m in length, 3.20m in width and 1.10m in depth. After being assembled with Yuchai YCV42, the speed reaches 21 knots, which exceeds the owner's expectation of 18 knots. "Feiying No.1" has been put into service again. From the operation situation, it has stable performance and excellent handling, especially in terms of fuel consumption, which saves more than 30% of fuel costs compared with similar ship types, especially those equipped with gasoline hooks.

 


The same case happened in the inland province of Hunan. At the gate of Yiyang Yida Shipyard, an aluminum alloy rescue boat assembled with Yuchai lifeboat capstan is ready to go. The total length is 13m, the displacement is 2.5t, and the YCV42 boat+surface paddle power system is adopted, with a speed of 37 knots.


Yuchai YCV42 is equipped with a high-speed engine, with a displacement of 4.2 liters, 250 horsepower and 3,100 rpm. It adopts electronically-control engines with common rail technology, which is reliable, low in energy consumption and noise, and strong in adaptability. With the fuel-saving technology of intelligent electronically-control engines, stable and reliable performance, and strong and excellent power, the power matching device of Yuchai high-speed boat engine+surface paddle/outboard machine has been popularized and used in rescue boats all over the world.
