Vard explores concepts for Canadian Coast Guard future fleet

Posted on May 11, 2019 by Chuck Hill

MarineLog reports,

“Vancouver, B.C., based Vard Marine, Inc. reports that the Canadian Coast Guard has awarded it an engineering services contract to explore concepts for the Coast Guard’s future fleet renewal program.

“…The work is intended to explore requirements for multiple future fleet ship types and could stretch over several years.“

Vard was of course a designer of the Offshore Patrol Cutter.

    Maybe Sri Lanka or the Philippines can get in line when we start decommissioning the rest of the 210’s and 270’s.
