Like many America's Cup boats the actual design of this boat is shrouded in secrecy and carefully protected by Woody Marine Fabrication.
When Woody won the contract to win the construction of a search and rescue
boat for the Volunteer and Marine Rescue at Point Danger in northern New
South Wales they set out to establish a new superior standard
- and did. From the links below you will be able to read the success story
of the 7.3 stepped hull Naiad.
