All boats and davit systems are developed in-house and conform with LSA regulations laid down by the International Maritime Organisation.
The current Hatecke GmbH portfolio of lifeboats covers a whole range of different models:
- Freefall lifeboats including tanker versions
- Conventional lifeboats including tanker versions
- Semi-enclosed lifeboats
- Tender boats
All lifeboats and rescue boats are delivered with their own inbuilt launching system, as a "ready-to-assemble" package. This helps minimise shipyard installation costs.
Survival at sea should not be left to chance. We create life-saving solutions you can depend on, tried and tested even in the worst possible conditions: on heavy seas, under arctic frost, in burning oil.
The end-product of know-how and innovation is a well-made, durable, individual solution. Simple to use, with low maintenance needs.
