Boeing JetFoil 2000, high speed passenger watercraft
Hull Material: Aluminum | Condition: Used | Fuel Type: Diesel | Passenger Capacity: > 30 People |
Length (m): 40m/130ft | Brand Name: Suresmart | Place of Origin: Hong Kong |
To design and build catamaran fitted with fully submerged retractable fore and aft hydrofoils.
Hydrofoil 2000 is a dual hull high speed passenger craft. These vessels, have been proven successful in Hong Kong/Macau waters since early 1990's and in international waters between Busan/Korea and Hakata/Japan since 2002.
The vessel is fitted with fully submerged fore and aft hydrofoils, which can fully retract when mooring. This revolutionary construction lifts the entire hull 1.5m above the water unlike previous hydrofoils that have barely any water clearance which is ineffective in rough seas. This new design is what we call "Jetfoil", this higher water clearance allows the ferry to travel at high speeds of 45knots (maximum) and 43knots (cruising speed), the hull can be lifted "above" the waves" allowing an extremely comfortable ride for passengers even in rough seas!
Jetfoil 2000, upgrade includes:
-more ergonomic design to interior settings
-aerodynamic improvement to ship hull
-more seating/payload capacity
-better stream line construction to water inlet system
-improvement to foils profiles

We are prepared to transfer and teach this manufacturing knownledge and deploy a team of specialists overseas for the supervision and fabrication of these high speed crafts.
We firmly anticipate that the investor/ship owner will be able to manage the know how and to complete fabication of this type of mono hull vessel within a period of 36 months time, provided that manufacturing facilities is present.
