Aister said the vacancy for a project manager/naval engineer in Vigo has been filled and is no longer open. The yard had been seeking someone with at least five years’ shipyard or naval office experience for aluminium vessel projects in Moaña, Vigo.
Aister said Navalia 2026 in Vigo drew more than 22,000 professionals over three days and gave it a platform to meet clients, suppliers and institutional visitors at its stand. The company also pointed to its HS60 high-speed interceptor and said it is working on unmanned vessels, high-speed patrol boats and zero-emission aluminium craft.
Baird Maritime has named Aister’s HS60 Rio Guadalmedina the Best Interceptor of the Year in its Work Boat World Awards. The high-speed patrol boat was designed for the Servicio Marítimo de la Guardia Civil, and Aister said the award was its fifth international recognition from the publication.
Students from the third and fourth years of the Naval and Ocean Engineering degree at the Escola Politécnica de Enxeñería de Ferrol visited AISTER’s facilities on 25 March. The visit was part of the 2026 Technical Visits programme organised by the Colegio Oficial de Ingenieros Navales y Oceánicos.
AISTER showed the HS60 Combat at FEINDEF 25 in Madrid in May, presenting it as a military version of its HS60 interceptor. The 18-metre boat is designed as a multimission platform for troop transport and other military operations, and the yard says the model can exceed 60 knots.
