Hatecke Service works in full compliance with the latest IMO regulations. All our own service technicians take part in regular training programs and acquire knowledge concerning critical parts and hidden dangers. Ask for specific information on board. They can give important insights to the crew.
Whenever it is possible Hatecke service engineers arrive with fully equipped service cars and appropriate tools. Not only visual inspection but also trouble shooting and maintenance will be done – at one stop. Our aim is to leave the lifesaving equipment fit for use. Otherwise we will arrange work completion in the next port.
Our engineers work quickly and precisely, but never in a manner that poses a risk for your crew.
Safety first, always.
Hooks are part of the annual and 5-years inspections (see SOLAS changes enforced July 1, 2008). Before ordering a service please take into account that Hatecke hooks need to be replaced 5 years after production.
The service on your equipment is critical to the safety of you and your crew. Learn how we work.
Hatecke supplies merchant ships and cruise vessels with high-quality lifeboats, rescue boats, launching appliances and release gears.
