On December 16, at the berth of a detached branch of Marine Hydrophysical Institute in Katsiveli, the transfer of a new small ship Trident Indigo from the manufacturer, TRIDENT Aluminum boats, to the owner, which is the Marine Hydrophysical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, took place.

Trident Indigo aluminum boat was purchased for widespread use in expeditionary work on a hydrophysical platform. The host committee, consisting of a group of MHI employees, praised the new vessel. Its convenient design was noted.

The through cabin of the boat makes it easy to get from the stern to the bow. In the cabin itself it is possible to equip a galley corner. Opposite the captain’s chair is a soft sofa that transforms into a double sleeping place. The basic equipment includes a liquid heater with circular glass blowing. The boatmaster's seat is equipped with a special marine chair with Grammer cushioning.

Directly at the helm of the new vessel, Alexander I. Kubryakov, deputy director of Marine Hydrophysical Institute, shared his impressions of the boat: "First impression - I really liked the boat! I hope that he will work perfectly. With its help we will be able to complete the program for the development of the landfill and get new results. I think this is not our last boat!"
