Damen: South African Navy’s 1st new inshore patrol vessel christened February 17, 2021, by Naida Hakirevic
On 12 February 2021, the South African Navy (SAN) held a blessing ceremony of the first of three Project BIRO multi-mission inshore patrol vessels (MMIPVs) at Damen Shipyards Cape Town (DSCT).
Due to the situation surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, the navy decided to organize only a small-scale event.
During the ceremony, the vessel was blessed and a bottle of champagne was broken over the bow as is the custom. The South African flag was raised on the newbuild which was cheered by its crew.
