TRN Islander 2 SAR - High-Endurance Rescue and Patrol Boat - Career and Stormlink Ready

Please read the instructions! This boat is performance/FPS friendly and career ready!

TRN Islander 2 SAR – Model Number IS5 - Converted 2nd Generation Hull "Derwent" - 1st Generation Pure Diesel Drivetrain

I present the TRN Islander 2 SAR, the 5th product in my line of Islander boats, with a very different role to any of my previous Islander boats. This Islander is optimised for search and rescue, medical transport and patrol operations. Compared to the Islander 2 XT, the 2 SAR boasts a large medical bay, additional equipment stores, a water cannon, large spotlights, multiple emergency radio systems, a transponder locater, a siren, and a megaphone system, plus two crew beds. The Islander 2 SAR is a brilliant example of the incredible versatility of the Islander platform.

The Islander SAR is a small/medium search and rescue, medical transport and patrol boat with a long range and high endurance, designed to respond to a plethora of SAR operations. It is also capable of transporting 12 Stormlink passengers in its front cabin. As with my passenger Islanders, the Islander SAR can complete extremely long journeys, and is able to make multiple Sawyer/Arctic round trips on a single tank of fuel. It also copes incredibly well with extreme weather and waves thanks to its high air intakes, low propellors and rudder, and low centre of gravity. The Islander 2 SAR can handle anything you throw at it.

Advised top speed is 27km/h with a range of 370-400km. Cabin capacity is 12 seated, 7 crew, 16 medical beds, and 2 crew beds. More passengers/survivors can stand in the cabin if needed, and crew seats can be used for passengers/survivors. Rear deck capacity is 10 seated and 20 standing, weather permitting. Diesel fuel only.

- Custom engine alert systems that sound a buzzer when certain conditions are met
- Custom automatic heating system that switches on below 12°C (can be switched off via a circuit breaker if not needed to save energy)

- Intelligent hull design to give as much usable cabin and deck space as possible

- Bathroom with working tap, shower and mirror

Instructions:
- Enter the cabin, you may need to crouch. Walk through the medical bay and open the cockpit/passenger cabin door
- Walk over to the left dashboard at the front and switch on “Electrical Systems”
- When you wish to turn the engines on, ensure that the “Engine Ready” lockable button is on, then turn the starter
- When you wish to move away, enter the captains seat and either use the throttle lever, or your 3 and 4 keys to control the combined throttle/clutch. Simply push forwards or hold 4 to accelerate
- Please note, if you accelerate too quickly right after starting the engine it may stop as a safety measure. Simply start it again and this will cancel the safety stop
- To turn off the engine either turn off the “Engine Ready” button, or the “Electrical Systems”
- To use the water cannon, megaphone and spotlight controls, sit in the left hand crew chair
- If the front indicator lights go green, then a signal has been detected on emergency channel 99

To refuel, walk onto the roof of the main cabin, then carefully move down onto the bow of the boat. You will then see a small orange refuelling panel and a spare hose. Take the hose and connect it to your fuel source, and then back to the Islander, then flick the breaker to begin refuelling. When the fuel level stops rising, refuelling is done.

Thanks to the generators and solar panels, the batteries will charge during normal use. If they need to be charged quickly, bring the throttle to around 0.1 and power will be passed mainly to the generators. If sat at a dock, you can also use the front charging connector, but this is unlikely to ever be needed.

I wanted to prove the versatility and capability of my Islander platform with the next TRN Islander boat, so I decided to convert the passenger Islander 2 XT into an extremely capable, high-endurance search and rescue, medical transport and patrol boat. I chose the Islander 2 XT as it was the most lightweight and popular Islander boat so far, so would provide the most available weight for SAR equipment.

Thank you so much for reading, and I hope you enjoy my creation! Feel free to also check out my TRN Islander Series collection, which includes all my previous and future Islander boats.
