The MV Invincible at Stromness Pier
The Main Deck with Benches for Kitting up
Invincible is the largest of the Orkney Dive boat Fleet with a load line of 23.95mts and an overall length 25.5mts she is more than capable of offering pretty much all year round diving in Scapa Flow, West Coast and North Isles expeditions are very much weather dependant and seasonal.

The M.V. Invincible is certificated under category two as required by the "Code of Practice" and is licensed to carry up to 14 persons, 12 passengers and two crew.
Access on to Invincible is via its own gang way leading you onto its shelter deck and down the stairs on to the main deck, no scrambling up and down the pier wall ladders on this one.

The first thing that strikes you with Invincible is her sheer size and the large open deck area with it's two large benches that run down each side of the boat and can comfortably accommodate 14 Trimix divers.

The bridge is fully equipped with all the usual and some of the most state of the art electronics including our H.P. marine P.C. with it Furno 19 inch monitor, this little baby is interfaced with the Furuno G.P.S. navigator GP-80 which runs our Sea Map chart plotter, a very impressive system. In the bridge at the chart table we also have an M.C.5 magnetometer which interfaces with the Furuno G.P. 500 very handy. Other electronics on the bridge include Icom 22 mile radar, Furuno colour video sounder, Wesmar SS390 forward looking drop sonar, ships watch, on board Nokia phone, Eagle intercom system. We also have four VHF radio set, Long Range Railor, Deburg Sailor, a Skanti and the latest all singing all dancing Furuno D.M.G.S. We also have a C.B. radio for idle chatter among skippers.
Invincible is fully centrally heated with tons of piping hot water, thanks to our Kabola diesel burner located on the bridge in the chart room.

We carry at all times, three oxygen kits, one located in the shelter deck and I have another two with me up on the bridge. And there's always plenty of O2 onboard.
Invincible also boasts 240 volt power through out, this is provided from its three phase 15kva Mercedes generator which is hosed within the shelter deck which is our work shop and equipment storage and changing area. The galley is full equipped with gas oven, fridge freezer, microwave oven and electric toaster. To the rear of the galley is the mess area fitted with soft upholstery for comfort and large table, the galley also has a T.V. combi for breakfast T.V. or yesterday's video of the Kronprinze.
Below deck we have the accommodation area and the bar.
Yes that's right, I said BAR !

Our luxury lounge bar really is quite something fully stocked with all the Orkney Ales and wide range of optics we even have the pumps and coolers, so if you want us to get a keg of Becks or anything just let us know and we'll see what we can do. And again as with every where on Invincible there is 240 power central heating and hot and cold running water.
