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 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 has won the contract to build and deliver Jeune France II, a hybrid passenger catamaran for the Territorial Collectivity of Saint-Pierre et Miquelon. The aluminium vessel is due for delivery in September 2027 and will replace the current Jeune France on the Saint-Pierre to Langlade route.
Aister has delivered the HS60 interceptor RÍO ANTAS to the Guardia Civil's maritime service in Moaña. It is the sixth unit of the model and the first boat under Aister's third contract for the programme. The vessel will join surveillance, maritime control and anti-drug interdiction duties after final preparations.
