More than 20 YEARS OF
INNOVATION AND MARINE
TECHNOLOGY
PS Design NAVAL is a new
successfully developing shipyard in the worldwide market and who has for more
than 20 years been at the technological forefront in the field of pleasure
cruising and high-speed ship construction and with
their hallmark being a very high quality product. PS Design was founded in
1981 as a small ship repair yard, and in 1991 was registered as Private Company.
In 1983 PS
Design delivered the first racing sail boat, using unique NormanBond own
technology (carbon-epoxy - aluminum sandwich construction) - this boat is still
winning a lot of Local regattas and last summer was sasses-fully resell in six
time to new owner.
Since 1981 up until today, PS
Design Naval has specialized in the construction of technologically advanced and
innovative yacht ships from 14 m to 150 m built in fiberglass or aluminum, in
carbon fiber or steel for the pleasure, race, and yacht markets. At the present
at the Sumy shipyard have produced 20m
Classic Schooner for the Swiss customer and 17m Traditional
schooner for the USA customer.
The integration between the
specific production facilities and the research, engineering and development
centers allows for the transfer of technology and knowhow to the diverse
elements of the group thereby maintaining a continuous quality improvement and
an optimization of the production processes. By the way - the own NormanBond
technology allow to construct extreme light hull for race or fast power and sail
boats.

Below is a letter about a sail race
boat from the Skipper Ericsson Racing Team (was confirmed
as the first official entry in the VolvoOcean Race
2008-09).
Dear Pavel,
Looks like a great boat - I'm
sure you will have a lot of fun and success in sailing it. We are ...... but if
we get the chance it would be good to have a chat about your project all the
best of luck with everything.
Neal McDonald and line from
the letter three-multiple Olympic Champion and Skipper of a Sweden Team of
America Cup Mr. Jesper Bank... it is obvious that the
boat has a quite remarkable speed potential, ... and we experienced a fast and
quickly acceleration boat. ... also here the
sensation was an easy to sail
and fast boat.... boat will be an interesting new boat to follow on the racing
scene.
