About ADV CAPE OTWAY
Australian Defence Vessel (ADV) Cape Otway, named after Cape Otway, is an evolved Cape-class patrol boat of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). It is the first of eight evolved Cape-class patrol boats to be delivered to the RAN. Prior to Cape Otway, the RAN already operated the Cape-class patrol boats Cape Fourcroy and Cape Inscription. It was built by Austal in Henderson, Western Australia, accepted on 23 March 2022 and based at HMAS Cairns in Queensland, where it arrived in June 2022. The patrol boat's primary duty lies in fisheries protection, immigration, customs and drug law enforcement operations. The ship is one of the original six evolved Cape-class patrol boats the RAN ordered in April 2020 to replace the Armidale-class patrol boats in this role, at a projected cost of A$324 million.
