TriFoiler in testing! Our electric foiling trimaran, has successfully launched and is now undergoing sea trials on Southampton Water. Part funded by a UK Government grant under the Innovate UK CMDC programme, this project is an important step in exploring the feasibility of a cost-effective, reliable zero-emission ferry. Built in collaboration with Solent University and Newcastle Marine Services Ltd, the vessel features a lightweight trimaran hull, a fixed main foil, and an actuating foiling rudder—designed to optimise efficiency while maintaining speed and stability. The trial phase is underway and will provide valuable data and experience informing the next stage of development towards a full-scale, 24m, 40-passenger foiling ferry!

So, rewarding to see her in front of Purus HST Frances, a hybrid Chartwell Ambitious CTV and just launched and entering sea trials, Diverse Marine’s first Chartwell Brevity CTV.

Great Work North Star’s Steve Myers MBA inspiring the next generation of ship designers! We really enjoyed being part of Harris’s innovation project! #design #engineering #innovation #inspiration #nextgeneration #futurethinking #marine #naval #architecture #technology #boats
⚡️🔬💡Inspiring the Next Generation of Green Innovators! Will your imagination change the world? That was the challenge set for South Tyneside pupils through the Little Inventors competition – delivered in collaboration with Dogger Bank Wind Farm and South Tyneside Council. Yesterday we got to celebrate the competition winner Harris Henderson, aged 10 from Sea View Primary School Harris wowed us all with his invention, ‘Hi Fish’ – a solar powered floating camera designed to monitor marine life and coral reef health without harming the environment. As the winner of the challenge, we brought his idea to life and presented Harris with a 3D model created using his design before stepping aboard the Grampian Derwent to see leading maritime technology and innovation in action and experience how the wind farm crew live whilst at sea. Joined by his Dad – Andrew Henderson, Steve Myers MBA, Cllr Margaret Meling – lead member of economic growth and transport, Equinor’s Tom Nightingale MCIM and Kay Doragh, Little Inventors – Dominic Wilcox and South Tyneside Councils Representatives – Alex Whelan and Lyndsey Gilmartin. At North Star we are committed to inspiring the next generation of engineers, innovators and sustainability champions. Well done, Harris! We can’t wait to see what you invent next 👏🏻 #RenewableEnergy #DoggerBank #FutureInnovators

It’s been an exciting start to the year for the Chartwell team with plenty of travel in the UK and abroad! Thomas Payne has been to Boston (and got to see the Boston Celtics in action), promptly followed by a trip to Alicat Workboats Ltd in Great Yarmouth with Rob Sime for a lightship survey, heel test and sea trials on a first-of-class monohull. Chris O'Neill and Adam Fermor have been to check progress on our 27m crew transfer vessel and 12m daughter craft builds at Diverse Marine. Andy Page and Aaron Rogers headed to the National Oceanography Centre with Stehr Consulting Ltd to conduct a HAZID workshop on a 37m methanol fuelled survey vessel, designed by Chartwell Marine Ltd. #maritime #engineering #travel #workhard #playhard

As we look into what 2025 has to offer, we are pleased to share this short teaser video on the progress of our Innovate UK CMDC Solent Tri Foiler Project. We are looking forward to moving into our testing phase in the coming months. Our team continue to develop next generation vessel designs. We take care to balance engineering innovation and trusted naval architecture. We are designing, building and testing to learn and be in a position to give best guidance to shipowners, shipbuilders and educators on the rights and wrongs of possible maritime innovations. Nice to see Lucas Barrozo Brun, Chris O'Neill and Tom Partington practicing what they preach wing foiling on a cold November morning...
