I thought this might be of interest to some. Watch the video as well, I think it is particularly interesting how they manufacture the monocoque hull side incorporating the buoyancy compartments.

Yes, interesting. I wonder if the material is as tough as GRP, they state it is reinforced with ‘fibre optics’.

It made me think of Linkspan Models and their ferries with innovative printed components. It is a shame that Carl Tunnicliffe has had to cease production for personal reasons.
