Lightweight steel yacht
A steel boat prototype manufactured entirely from Sandvik's advanced stainless steel Sandvik SAF 2507 has been presented to a specially invited group of stakeholders, including representatives from the Swedish Armed Forces.
There are several aspects that makes the Swedish steel yacht attractive for the police, armed forces, pilotage and sea-rescue services, as well as other stakeholders. It's not only lighter than traditional aluminium boats, but also consumes half as much fuel, has major environmental benefits, and is extremely durable.
