The M/V Deacon was transferred to Seacraft Shipyard where she was dry-docked in June 2008 and the bottom of the vessel was repainted.

A recently constructed model shows what the vessel’s outer decks would look like with conventional power. While the M/V Deacon is currently powered with two Allison 501 KF turbines, she may be re-powered with conventional engines. New construction cost to replace the vessel is estimated at over $30 million. The final design presented a number of challenges, while incorporating many high tech features, such as a gas turbine coupled to controlled pitch propellers via a 27:1 reduction gear and an active fin system. They also required comfortable seating, ample legroom and an HVAC system with a relatively high rate of exchange. The ergonomic requirements were defined to limit the incidence of seasickness to less than 5% in 4 hours exposure in the 2- to 3- meter seas so common to the Campos Basin where the vessel would operate. ![]() The M/V Deacon is capable of speeds over 30 knots.
