Latest WASSP  installation

To support their expanded marine environmental monitoring responsibilities under the Marine and Coastal Access Act Sussex IFCA decided  to develop their marine survey capability on the FPV Watchful. The WASSP multibeam system met their needs by allowing them to collect habitat information as part of their existing activities without the need for external organisations.

The WASSP sonar was installed by Tate and Crewe in Eastbourne and has been in constant use since June 2011. By mounting the WASSP on the hull a much better result is achieved than pole-mounting the transducer, with no need to re-calibrate the system or adjust how the vessel is operated. The WASSP was interfaced to the vessels existing Olex system.
