Project OVERVIEW
The Woolgoolga 30, measuring 10 meters in length and 3.45 meters in beam, is specifically designed for beach launch and recovery operations. This capability is crucial in areas without accessible boat ramps, ensuring rapid deployment and retrieval, thus enhancing response times during emergencies.
These capabilities could also offer some challenges should difficult weather arise so it was important that we ensure the operating parameters were able to be met.
Project GOALS
Equipped with a powerful Cummins QSB6.7 inboard diesel engine and a Hamilton waterjet, the Woolgoolga 30 offers exceptional speed and manoeuvrability. This advanced propulsion system allows for tight turns and high-speed travel, significantly improving operational efficiency during rescue missions.
In combination with the beach landing capabilities it was important that we design an air flow system that didn't put the boat at risk. Knowing how it was to be used was a key factor in our design.
The CHALLENGE
The Woolgoolga RIB is designed for fast response and recovery in what may be difficult conditions. To accommodate for this our system was designed to ensure the best airflow possible with the safest set up.
The SOLUTION
Mark laid out and designed a system that drew the cool fresh air in through air intake grilles in the front of the boat, ejecting the warm spent air out the rear over the transom. This means that the Woolgoolga does not compromise its capabilities at any point.
