The present embodiments relate to a vessel for oceanographic research and the development and maintenance of renewable energy resources. The vessel can have a hull, a keel with a keel cooler, skegs, watertight interior bulkheads, a main deck, topsides, insulation, sonar tubes, a sonar transducer, an engine room, a propulsion system, propellers and rudders that are operable independently and in tandem, engines with vibration isolation mounts, fuel tanks, a hydraulic bow thruster, generators, a pilothouse, a navigation station, a steering device, a dog house, living quarters, a communication system, lighting, escape hatches, and a knuckle boom crane. The hull can be adapted to sit level on a mudflat during a low tide, enabling crew to initiate emergency repairs to the vessel without having to return to port.
