The two last OCEA Fast Patrol Boat FPB 72 MKII for the Philippines Coast Guards were loaded onto the cargo going to Subic on October 16, 2018.
Following the arrival in Manila of the two first FPB 72 MKII "BORACAY" and "PANGLAO", it was a great emotion for the OCEA teams to load the two last "OCEA FPB 72 MKII" in order they join the Philippines Coast Guards fleet.
The training of the crews of the "BORACAY" and "PANGLAO" are already achieved, and the two first OCEA FPB 72 MKII are officially commissioned on the 15th October 2018 in presence of the Secretary of Department of Transportation Arthur P. TUGADE and the Secretary of Department of Finance Carlos G. DOMINGUEZ III.
The construction of the OPV 270, Offshore Patrol Vessel of 84 m for the Philippines Coat Guards is still under construction at OCEA shipyard for a delivery in August 2019.
