Namacurra-class patrol boat

The Namacurra class[2] (also spelled "Namicurra")[3] is a series of small harbour patrol craft designed and built in South Africa.

The boats are powered by two BMW or Yamaha 280-kilowatt (380 bhp) gasoline engines turning two propellers giving the vessels a maximum speed of 30 knots (56 km/h; 35 mph) With a crew of four they have a maximum range of 180 nautical miles (330 km; 210 mi) at 20 knots (37 km/h; 23 mph).

[3] The patrol boats mount a Furuno surface search radar operating on the I band.

[2][3] These boats are in use with the harbour patrol forces in Cape Town, Port Elizabeth, Durban and Walvis Bay.

Five were refitted for advanced riverine operations as part of Project Xena.
