These boats are powered by twin Cummins diesel engines, which are linked to Hamilton water-jet units and a platform aft of the transom offers protection to these drive units. This gives a speed of 18 knots at the normal displacement of 10 tonnes. The fuel carrying capacity of the crafts is 800 liters. A high-speed version, Mandovi Marine (15 meter) class patrol craft are in service of Mauritius and Islamic Republic of Mauritania.[1]
