Our latest build the 10.85M Dive/fishing catamaran has taken longer than planned but is now ready for the launching trailer. We have used Nyalic clear coating to protect the alloy surface and anti-fouling will be applied the day before launching. We have high hopes for this vessel and the hull is the test-bed for future water taxis and ferries to be marketed in Australasia.
Our 10.85 meter catamaran is currently having mechanical installation completed and awaiting the electrical wiring and system. Q-SPD surface drives and Steyr 286 engines have been installed. The boat also has a Fischer Panda 8000i generator, air conditioning, water maker and a WASSP marine sonar.
Windows and doors have all been fitted.
Weeks 10 and 11 our factory was closed for the holiday break and we started work again on 9th January 2017. The client has issued a very long list of additional work which will add considerable time to this project. However, progress is good and we are about 75% through the extra work list into Week 14.
Week 9 has now passed and the major fabrication and welding work is finished. The engines have not yet arrived so we have installed the aft topsides and started the long list of small jobs to be completed.
