CoCo Yachts books two more Coastal Cruiser contracts
Written by Nick Blenkey
Peng Xing was the first customer for CoCo Yachts' Coastal Cruiser 199 design. This time round it has ordered another Coastal Cruiser 199 and one Coastal Cruiser 300, both with an option for one further vessel .
Peng Xing decided to continue with the Coastal Cruiser series is based on its experiences with a fleet of five of these ferries.
"The 27.5% lower fuel consumption, compared with their other vessels, and very low noise levels in the wheelhouse, crew
accommodations and passengers salons, in combination with good sea keeping performance, appeared to be very convincing," says CoCo Yachts.
The Coastal Cruiser 199 will be delivered to Peng Xing Shipping Company in January 2017, with the Coastal Cruiser 300 following in April 2017. Both will be deployed to run services in the Pearl River delta between Shenzhen - Zhuhai - Hong Kong - Macau P.R. China.
