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.

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
