Progress Report #01 | Q1 2023 | Kick-Off


30/03/2023

 Below is a series of images relating to the works in progress on the Mangusta 104 hull no. 6.

Arrow representatives, Technical Manager Matthew Wood and Project Manager Harry Noonan were present at Mangusta facility in Viareggio for the purpose of surveying the Vessel on site and also carrying out a very productive “Kick-off meeting” with the Mangusta Technical team and project management.

We discussed outstanding items of the specifications sheet in great detail including but not limited to the paint scheme, handrails, options list, USB sockets and the Star link concept.

We are all looking forward to working in harmony to build and deliver this wonderfully designed Performance Yacht.

An on-site survey was also conducted and these images relate to the progress at this time. As she is at an early stage in the adventure we are studying the FRP practice and results. There is good evidence of correct overlapping of fibre glass matting throughout as well as reinforcement on deck joints with approved bonding/sealing joints.

The Mangusta team are happy with the schedule so far ,which bodes well for our project.
