Otam 65 HT - the fastest Otam ever according to designer Francesco Guida

The new Otam 65 HT has been conceived to meet the specifc demands of a deeply passionate and brave yacht owner, driven by the desire not to buy a serial product but to create a brand-new design. At the customer’s request, the Francesco Guida Design frm designed the styling and details of the internal layout and of the external cockpit, giving the yacht even more personality and translating the specifc requests of the customer with a lot of attention to detail.

This yacht embodies the concepts of experience, research, development, fexibility, iconic design, and top performance combined with outstanding effciency.

High-strength fff ship windows from Fehrmann

They are still primarily installed in police boats, patrol vessels and heavy weather rescue cruisers, where they ensure the greatest possible safety under the toughest conditions. Now Fehrmann opens the distribution of its patented fff windows for other ship groups, national and international. The fff ship windows are 600% more resistant to failure compared to windows commonly available on the market: even in tests according to naval standards, in which shock and vibration tests showed that the windows withstood more than ten times the acceleration of gravity. This gain in safety for crew and cargo, not only during autumn storms, has already convinced several shipping companies to equip their ships with fff windows. Complete windows can be replaced within a few minutes and without any hot work. This is made possible by a patented clamping system that eliminates the need for screws or adhesives. To install or replace an fff window, all you need is a hex wrench or a cordless screwdriver.

Cyber security assessment capabilities to support vessels with IMO 2021 Cyber Security Compliance

Vessels worldwide are now facing compliance with IMO 2021 cyber security regulations. These are the frst of what could be additional cyber security regulations for regulated vessels and facilities. International Maritime Security Associates (IMSA), the developers of the award-winning ARMS software platform, have developed a suite of cyber security tools and services for the maritime industry. The company has recently launched the capability to conduct basic shipboard network vulnerability assessments without sending personnel onboard. This unique tool is part of a larger suite of cyber security tools IMSA has developed to support vessels and maritime facilities with expanding their cyber security defenses.

Meet the WB 10.7m LimoTender

Wooden Boats is no stranger to challenges. With its vocation of combining elegant design with effcient engineering and performance as its starting point, it has created the new WB 10.7m LimoTender. The tender’s distinguishing feature is the movable deckhouse, which is necessary for it to be comfortably stowed in the garage of the superyacht that houses it. The American owners who commissioned the WB 10.7m LimoTender had no doubts: after appreciating the WB14 built for the Benetti shipyard, they wanted as similar a tender as possible for their 100m mega yacht. The sheer size of the garage presented the boutique shipyard in Viareggio with a truly complex challenge, which its owner and founder, engineer Marco Arnaboldi, took on with great determination.
