Commercial passenger-boat operators seeking sailing catamarans
Worth noticing
The build log says the mold is complete and the first hull panels are being bonded under a tent in Southport.

Field notes

The dated build log records the work in stages: the yard was set up in September 2026, mold shaping followed, and an October update says the mold is complete. Another update describes the first hull panels coming out of the mold and being bonded under a tent. The builders say later vessels will use the same design; the site gives a 2027 launch target for Hull No. 1.
