The Eco Abrolhos is a multi-hull vessel supporting four levels of operating decks.

Storage for fuel, fresh water, waste water and sundry items is catered for in each hull. The engine rooms also house the Desalination Plant as well as the Power Generating and the (Marpol compliant) Waste Water Management systems which ensure that the vessel is self-contained.
