You can read about it on page 4: http://www.bourbon-online.com/media/dossierdepresse/BOURBON-ORCA-Press-Kit.pdf

Bourbon Orca is the only X-Bow AHTS & the only one with that ramp. All other newer ships still have stern rollers.

person

I can't find anywhere on the web whether this is actually the first or last of this system, Rolls Royce bought the company which developed this system so you'd guess it would be used more in the Ulstein AHT's designs.

person

The first & probably the last with that innovative stern ramp system. I wonder why?
