Aister has placed the stern frame on JANOT, the catamaran it is building for Saint Pierre et Miquelon. The yard said the vessel has now reached a major structural milestone and that the name was formally confirmed during a visit by archipelago president Bernard Briand.
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.
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.
