**NEWS UPDATE (26th Jan 2012)**
Congratulations to Dave Harrison of Dartmouth who is the latest Charter Skipper to realise the benefits of a Displacement Catamaran and place an order with us.
Dave, a highly respected skipper on the south coast, was instrumental in the early stages of defining the standard specification for our Charter spec’ package and having recently sold his vessel ‘Gemini’ was finally in a position to reap the benefits of this.
Dave’s 11m Catamaran will feature our classic ‘Island’ Wheelhouse split into two separate compartments, one for the skipper, the second for the anglers connected via a door in the inset aft bulkhead.
The ever popular Nanni 200Hp common Rail engines will again be used, resulting in the much talked about sub 2 Litres per Nautical mile fuel burn figures for which the S.P.E.E.D. design is becoming known and the reason which Dave was attracted to the design in the first place.
Dave, who was in a position to place an order at short notice, was able to benefit from the vacant build slot that had opened up in our schedule and as such his new Cat’ will be started immediately.
Also well underway in our workshop at this time is the second vessel for Tony Bradley of Jevington Logistics. Although the same length as his first vessel, ‘Triton’, this second catamaran features a far smaller Island wheelhouse to facilitate the recovery of the larger Drones fired from the ranges in Pembrokeshire. Powered by the Nanni 200Hp units and sporting a deck mounted crane, this vessel is due for completion by the end of March.
As reported in the December news update, we have a further two builds, ensuring the future of the company through until 2013. The first of these will be for Glen Cairns who will be the first skipper to take delivery of one of our kit boats. This vessel when completed will replace his existing catamaran Valkyrie, running as a charter angling vessel from Langstone Harbour.
The second will be a full build vessel for Lyle Stantiford of Weymouth. Lyle, having been mightily impressed with a sea trial aboard Dave Gibson’s ‘Meerkat’ through the Portland Race, wasted no time in visiting us during the build of Andy Cumming’ boat Silver Spray 2 and immediately placed an order. His new boat will replace his existing 8m catamaran ‘Supernova’, which Lyle has built into a successful business.
Please do not hesitate to call us with your requirements.
