Ben and Ashley of the sailing vessel Nahoa have selected Circa Marine in Whangarei, New Zealand, as the builder for their new Nahoa M yacht project.3:14 The couple evaluated shipyards across Europe, South Africa, Asia, and the United States, ultimately prioritizing political stability, English as a working language, high-end craftsmanship, and favorable exchange rates.1:03 Circa Marine, known for building the FPB series, will manage the 18-month construction process.14:09 The project team includes French naval architect Pierre Delion and build manager Todd Rickert, who previously oversaw FPB construction at the same yard.12:49 The Nahoa M design features a protected forward cockpit intended to keep the crew rested and alert during long passages.15:56 To address concerns regarding water ingress and icing in high latitudes, the design utilizes a primary watertight bulkhead at the rear of the cockpit, while lines are routed through mullion passages to strip away moisture.14:47 The project emphasizes proven build records over unproven promises to mitigate the risks of cost and time overruns.8:52
