New 888 in build
A bit of a sneak preview of the new Technohull 888 in build. Hull plug nearing completion prior to the mould being taken.

This is a triple step design - and from our new series of very high speed designs - code name AquaVITE.

Hope it is of interest - if maybe not the boat to suit everyone!

Is it a splash of a Mannerfelt hull?

- Far better - tapered steps, double chine and a third step.

Will see what other photos I have!

This is the only other photo I have at this stage. All others are earlier in the plug building process.

Hope these are of interest - a couple more in the earlier stages of plug construction.

"All out", then you should have paced yourself!

I'm away at the moment, but I'll get some to you by chubby post next time he's down!
