As part of our Career Connect Washington Maritime Sector ongoing work, we actively track, document, and inform about emerging technologies and trends. Bellingham, Wash.-based All American Marine (AAM) reports that it is currently constructing a sister ship to the tour vessel Chugach Express that it delivered to Alaska-based Phillips Cruises & Tours in April 2024.
Building on experience with the Chugach Express, the new high-speed, long-range eco-tour vessel will operate daily in Prince William Sound and be homeported in Whittier, Alaska.
Developed by Nic de Waal of Teknicraft Design, the 84.5 x 30.7 foot aluminum passenger vessel features a next-generation semi-displacement catamaran hull with proven, real-world performance.
