With the option of a second twin ship, the Galician leader company expresses its satisfaction for the confidence placed by the Canary shipping company, one of the most important in our country, on the professional Rodman ships

In recent years, Rodman has successfully designed, built and delivered different types of catamarans, not only of passengers, but also for other uses, such as hydrographic and research catamarans or offshore catamarans supporting marine wind power platforms.

This new Rodman 80, has been specifically designed for the transport of passengers without a vehicle, focused on tour tourism, in accordance with the requirements established by the shipowner.

The new Rodman 80, 26 m long and 9.80 m manga, will have a capacity for 250 passengers and will install two 1,450 hp engines each. In addition, they will have indoor and outdoor cover, very demanded among the tourist public, as well as bar service - cafe and on-board entertainment.

The construction of this new catamaran represents a new challenge for the shipyard, where it will perfectly combine all its experience and qualification in the construction of this type of boat, with its standard quality standards and with the requirements required by its shipowner.

The achievement of this new contract consolidates Rodman's position as one of the world's leaders in the construction of professional boats in PRFV.
