Dylan and his team at Further Composites have been hard at work and the Nutshell 26 compact leisure catamaran hull moulds are now complete. We will be laying up the prototype next week.
The finish of these hull moulds is excellent and the use of advanced computer-modelling and cutting has resulted in a fair, symmetrical and accurate set of moulds. This will make the rest of the process as trouble-free as possible.
The deck moulds are also progressing well. We will initially test the boat without the accommodation pod and with outboards instead of electric pods.
The first production slot is filled. We are working on syndicates in South Africa to share the second production model. We can then continue testing variations of the rig and engine control systems.
