One hull. Any mission.
A 9-metre 3D-printed RHIB-style unmanned surface vehicle powered by a 250hp outboard, with 700 km of range. Aircraft-style cargo rails on deck reconfigure the payload in minutes — ISR today, defensive escort tomorrow, drone deployer the day after. Autonomous or remotely operated, encrypted multi-link comms.
The Sea Whale is the industrial successor to the combat-proven River Whale — same engineering lineage, scaled into a 9-metre seagoing platform built around modular payloads. It is unmanned by design and presents a low acoustic and radar signature; this is not a silent boat, it is a boat that is hard to see and that nobody is on board to lose.

Example Payload Modules
Modular by design
Adaptable to any mission via the deck rail system.
Rapid reconfiguration
Swap mission modules in minutes, not hours.
Autonomous capable
Reduced crew. One operator can manage the platform.
Built for real conditions
Rugged and saltwater resistant — designed for the open sea.
Multi-mission platform
ISR, security, and support — same hull.
Sea-kindly hull
Semi-V keeps the platform stable in working seas.
