To give you a reply is not the problem, Woodge.

I know that there is in the US somebody attempting to find customers for this material, to no prevail; probably he faces same difficulties as I did long time ago.

I haven't pursued this venture anymore, maybe I am tempted to do it again, although I am not anymore involved in yachtbuilding and more in the production of Naval vessels and their propulsion.

In terms of a superyacht say, over 50 meters or more, you'll save about 30% in gross weight of hull and superstructure material, in comparison to the steel/alu traditional concept.

I have no need to promote myself, or the company I work in, so I prefer the present state of the issue and that is obscurity. Let it simmer, it was published once in Boat International, long time ago and I got only one reply on that topic, from Tasmania, that took almost half a year to reach me.

If you are personally interested, you could contact me.
