Zyvex Marine is a division of Zyvex Technologies, a molecular engineering company. Zyvex Marine develops boats that use Zyvex Technologies' proprietary nanomaterials.
History
Zyvex Marine was formally announced as a division of Zyvex Technologies on November 4, 2011. It is headquartered in Bothell, Washington. Zyvex Marine launched its first production boat on November 4, 2011.
In 2009, prior to becoming a formal division, Zyvex Marine created the world's first commercialized carbon nanotube enhanced (CNTe) carbon fiber prototype vessel called the 540SE. It was designed to offer a 75% reduction in fuel consumption costs based on lightweight nanomaterials used in its hull design.
In 2010, it created the first prototype vessel called the Piranha Unmanned Surface Vessel, which is a 54-foot (16.4 meter) boat made out of the same lightweight nanomaterials as the 540SE.
In 2011, Zyvex shipped its first production craft, a 54-foot lightweight boat.[1]
Vessels
Piranha
The Piranha Unmanned Surface Vessel is a 54-foot (16.4 meter) vessel created out of lightweight nanomaterials. It was announced on February 19, 2010.[2] The first Piranha began construction in February 2010 and was completed and initiating sea trials by October 2010.[3] The Piranha concluded approximately 6 months and 600 nautical miles of sea trials in Washington state and Oregon state on April 4, 2011.[4]
