Prout April News

Prout April News Bulletin


Summer is arriving and Prout is turning up the heat!


Prout is back from much excitement from the Shanghai Boat Show and the Singapore Boat Show! The shows were very productive and Prout is now busier than ever, building its yachts to more-than-satisfy its experienced and varied clientele.


Breaking records, Prout has successfully infused all three hulls of its innovative sailing trimaran, the PT-138, using epoxy resin. The infusions could not have gone better. Prout's 138 trimaran is destined to be the world's largest sailing trimaran yacht in the world once it is completed.


At the shipyard, the workers are cranking away full speed. Prout has made swift progress on its P-77, a 77 foot catamaran. Exhibiting the finest standards, this yacht is being built entirely out of epoxy as well. Prout has successfully infused this in one single piece without any joints, thereby creating a stronger better structure with less weight. Specifically speaking, Prout's 77 foot hull weighs only 3.7 tonnes in stark comparison to the 12.1 tonnes if it had been completed using a traditional hand lay-up.


Meanwhile, Prout continues fruitful work on its many other projects. Prout will next be at the Hong Kong Gold Coast Boat Show and the Australia Sanctuary Cove Boat Show. See you there! Please contact Prout for details or if you have any questions!
