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.
