CoCo Yachts: Two Contracts for Coastal Cruisers

CoCo Yachts has announced two new contracts with the first Coastal Cruiser 199 customer : Peng Xing Shipping Company. Just after having delivered the fifth AFAI Southern Shipyard built Coastal Cruiser 199, Peng Xing Shipping Company decided to buy another Coastal Cruiser 199 and one (1) Coastal Cruiser 300, both with an option for one. 

Based on their great experiences with the fleet of 5, the decision to continue with the CoCo Yachts designed Coastal Cruiser series was taken quickly. The 27.5% lower fuel consumption, compared with their other vessels, and very low noise levels in the wheelhouse, crew accommodation and passengers salons, in combination with good sea keeping performance, appeared to be very convincing.  The new aluminium high speed passenger ferries will be built at AFAI Southern Shipyard in Guangzhou, and will have the following main particulars:
