Research Vessels
Featuring a shallow-V planing hull, Gladding-Hearn’s coastal research vessels are fast and versatile − accommodating multiple laboratories and an array of complex equipment for scientists and crews – and capable of traveling some distance and still returning within a normal workday. The vessels shown, measuring 50- to 60-feet, were delivered to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Old Dominion University, and the University of New Hampshire. Each built on the best features of the last boat, with speeds of 22 knots or more and a range of up to 1000 NM.
