Keel laying for newbuilding 784 The first module of the newbuilding number 784, weighing more than 154 tonnes, was lowered onto the pier by crane in a traditional keel laying ceremony at Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft (FSG). In keeping with maritime custom, a coin was placed on top of the bollard as a lucky charm for the RoRo ferry to be built. The nails were hammered into the keel laying plate by Philipp Maracke (Managing Director of FSG Nobiskrug Holding), Chas Kelly (CEO SeaRoad), Tony Johnson (Technical Marine Manager SeaRoad), and Dustin Lind, the youngest apprentice at FSG.

Norway's government has decided that from 2026, ships that still use fossil fuels will no longer be allowed to enter the country's fjords. This - quite rightly - puts designers and shipowners under pressure.

The two New Zealanders Rob Innes and Dan Piazza started out 25 years ago as Innespace, later Innespace Productions in Northern California, with small, fast and also limited submersible watercraft of various propulsion types.
