Iain was acquired by the UK Border Force in June 2016 and renamed HMC Eagle.
Construction
Eagle is one of eight coastal patrol vessels of the UK Border Force.[2] Built in 2006 Eagle was originally named Iain and served as an Autonomous Rescue and Recovery Craft in the North Sea for offshore projects. Iain was operated as a daughter craft from a larger offshore support vessel and launched when needed via a davit. The design includes a deep-vee hull design constructed from fibre-reinforced plastic.[3] The design is also self-righting and can return to the upright position if capsized.[3]
After service with BP from 2006 to 2016, Iain was sold to the UK Border Force[4] for use as a coastal patrol vessel. The vessel was renamed Eagle and entered service in June 2016.
Propulsion
Eagle is fitted with twin Caterpillar C18 engines[3] driving twin water jets[3] through a pair of reduction gearboxes.[3] The total installed power of Шаблон:Convert[5] gives Eagle a top speed of Шаблон:Convert[5] in calm seas, or up to Шаблон:Convert in seas with up to 7 metres significant wave height.[3]
