Hi,

I was asked to bring some yachting expertise to this project when it was first mooted.

The team members I met had big ideas and no yacht experience, the thought of using anything other than black steel for pipes was an alien concept.

To the best of my knowledge the hull was built in Poland and then nothing has really gone on with it for a couple of years.

The original plan called for all the engineering and sea trials to be done and the boat to re locate to UK then fit the interior.

Maybe it is being finished in secret in Norway or somewhere else.

Only time will tell.

Any word on this project at all? PJ is still marketing the yacht on their website but haven't seen any new news on anything. I'll have to ask when I am up at their facilities at the end of the month.

I think this photo underlines pretty much your post and shows us a very rusty lady...It indeed looks like Norway where she has been bound for years.
Or did I not catch the newest hull colour trends?!

Instead the unexpirienced team members she is at least floating...
Seriously it is sad to see a project ending like this!

Hi,

That is a good find.

I actually know someone who has looked at it for a client since I was there, he said it was not bad for a commercial hull. Dunno what went on after his report went to the client, if that photo is recent I would guess not much.

The Fjord where it was built will soon be solid with ice and look quite different to how that photo shows it.

The 9th September is pretty recent.

That looks really good though, the design. It is one thing to see it in rendering but another to see a real photo of the real yacht. it's sad how it's ended up!
