The new FSD N800 units have a length of 16.75 meters, a beam of 4.43 meters and a draft of 1.57 meters, with a hull made from composite material consisting of glass fiber and carbon fiber. The new units can be powered by a new concept hybrid Transfluid diesel/electric engine, integrated with the onboard systems by Ferretti’s engineers for zero-emission operation.

The outstanding combination of innovative technology and skilful design significantly reduces consumption and environmental impact, safeguarding the marine ecosystem at the same time as delivering extraordinary performance in terms of speed and handling.

The new FSD N800 units, which will be deployed on patrol missions to ensure the security and protection of Italian marine areas, are the very first large patrol boats in Europe to make use of innovative Transfluid hybrid propulsion technology, meaning they are fully operational even in areas protected by the most stringent environmental protection regulations.
