KND launches fast life-support ambulance

Founded in 1984 by Kobus Potgieter, KND's prime focus was to become a world-class naval research and development facility, both locally and internationally.
KND has just completed the successful sea trials of its all-new 10m Fast Life Support Ambulance. The vessel is well equipped with all the latest medical equipment, WC, hand wash basin, seating for two medical personnel and two patients. Fitted with two 250 Yamaha outboards, the vessel is claimed to have reached a maximum speed of 40kts (about 75km/h) with ease.
