Mohican

Mohican was specifically developed to cope with the fast moving and unpredictable turbid waters of the southern North Sea. The ‘dynamic vector’ feature enables the operator to adjust thruster angles on the fly for agile maneuvering and the 3000v 400Hz power system is particularly suited to long tether excursions and deep liveboating operations.
