Engineered for Reliable Performance
Workboat Designs has established its reputation by delivering high-performance vessels to leading operators across the commercial marine industry. The Resolute 45 design exemplifies this expertise, providing a robust and reliable platform for independent and institutional lifeboat services alike.
In addition to the vessel itself, a custom launch and recovery system was also engineered, enabling direct deployment from challenging coastal environments. This integration ensures operational readiness in demanding conditions where rapid response is critical.
This Lifeboat design accommodates a dedicated crew alongside survivors, with an aluminium hull and composite wheelhouse that balance durability with weight efficiency. This construction supports speed, maneuverability, and resilience during emergency operations.
