How to Run a Performance
Review on Your Vessel

Written for High Speed Vessels

This paper is written for maritime professionals aiming to identify the
performance and cost-effectiveness of their vessel’s propulsion system. It is written for high-speed vessels such as:

• Fast ferries
• Workboats
• Multipurpose-vessels
• Yachts
• Sightseeing/tourism vessels
• Patrol vessels

Running a performance review cannot only help you determine the competitiveness of your vessel today, but also identify what you need to do to remain so in the future. To help you in this process, we have identified seven parameters, to give you a systematic approach during the review process:

• Economy
• Environment
• Versatility
• Reliability
• Safety
• Adaptability
• Comfort

This paper will first begin by outlining different high-speed vessel categories and propulsion system, then guide you through the seven performance parameters.
