Damen Stan 4100 patrol vessel

The Damen Stan 4100 patrol vessel design is a design from the Damen Group, a conglomerate of maritime companies based in the Netherlands. Damen has a long history of designing, licensing out, and building small and medium sized coastal patrol vessels. All their designs have a four digit code, where the first two digits are the length of the vessel, in metres.

Damen only built a limited number of patrol vessels to the 4100 design, but experience gained with the 4100 design was used when designing the slightly larger 4207 design.[1] Several dozen vessels have been built to the Damen Stan 4207 patrol vessel design for a dozen nations.

The Dutch Caribbean Coast Guard operates three 4100 patrol vessels, the Jaguar, Poema and the Panter.[2] One vessel is stationed at each of Aruba, Curaçao, Sint Maarten. Vietnam Marine Police also operates three vessels.
