"Fortitude" is a 1997 Conquest 60, constructed by Sea Chrome Marine to a Len Randell design, presented in excellent condition and certified across multiple AMSA survey classes (1C, 1D, 1E, 2B). Well-maintained and having been upgraded by the current owners, the vessel is well equipped and ready for immediate commercial operations or private use.
Propulsion is provided by a single Caterpillar C18 producing 1,000 HP, delivering a comfortable cruising speed of 16 knots and a top speed of up to 21 knots. A large PTO system drives the hydraulic bow thruster, steering and windlass, while a Caterpillar C2-2 generator supplies all 240V onboard systems. With an impressive fuel capacity of 5,000 litres and freshwater capacity of 2,350 litres, Fortitude is ideally suited to extended offshore operations.
The interior is spacious and fully air-conditioned throughout, offering accommodation for up to 12 berths across three cabins. The galley is fitted with Corian benchtops, a two-burner convection stove and fridge/freezer, while a gas BBQ is located on the aft deck.
