News from the Alpha Yacht yard
Big news from Alpha Yachts: Having faced the East Coast’s third harshest winter on record Alpha Yachts is going full force. The yard recently hired 4 more composite craftsmen who complement the now 22 strong workforce at the Patchogue NY shipyard. After having built the first Aeroyacht ALPHA 42 catamaran prototype, small design and construction changes are improving the boat even further. In the past 3 months Alpha Yachts has invested 300,000$ in new tooling for all of the inside liners and the superstructure of the Alpha 42 catamaran. This will make the boat lighter, even better looking and easier to build. A NY State government grant will expand the yards existing assembly area, adding a new 6000 sqft building to Alpha Yachts already expansive infrastructure. This additional building will enable Alpha Yachts to assemble an extra 4 boats for a total of 6 boats at the same time. The big news is a new Alpha model which is in the pipeline. More about this in the next posting…
