Sports Events
Defiance can be used to support sporting events. A large open deck allows excellent view of the event. The dive lift makes the boat ideal for safety cover, as people can be recovered from the sea easily and safely. There is ample space for equipment and treatment if necessary both outside and inside under cover.
The vessel can also be used as a race control platform or for laying racing marks.
Special Events
Special events such as the Eastbourne Air show or Brighton’s Burning of the Clocks can be watched from the sea. This gives an unprecedented view of the event on the seafront, without having to fight the crowds for a good view.
