Built Responsibly. The Maldivia 45 Sustainability Story. Performance and sustainability are not usually found in the same sentence when talking about high-speed passenger vessels. With the Maldivia 45 carbon hull, we believe that changes — and the numbers back it up. Less Material. From the First Cut. Carbon fibre construction requires more than 50% less raw material compared to an equivalent fibreglass build. That alone is a remarkable figure — and it means the Maldivia 45...]]></description><link>https://www.maldiviashipyard.com/post/production-start-hull-no-1-carbon</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69df966c934ce577916f0185</guid><pubDate>Wed, 15 Apr 2026 13:53:20 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9c36af_f8b594465405416a850ea41f0c529f3a~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Hans Genthe</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Maldivia 45 Carbon — Structural Engineering Complete.]]></title><description><![CDATA[We are proud to announce a landmark milestone in the development of the Maldivia 45: the full structural engineering for the carbon fibre version is done. This is not a minor update. This is the Maldivia 45 reimagined at the material level — and the implications for performance, payload, and operational economics are profound. Why Carbon. Why Now. The Maldivia 45 was already an exceptional platform.

Delivering a vessel of this calibre at a price that makes commercial sense for operators requires more than great engineering. It requires a production infrastructure built with the same level of intention. That is exactly what we have done. We are excited to announce the completion of our entirely new manufacturing facility — purpose-designed, from the ground up, around the Maldivia 45 production workflow.

We have reached a moment we have been working towards for a long time — and we could not be more proud to share it. The Maldivia 45 hull mould is complete, and it is moving to our series production facility. The Most Important Tool We Will Ever Build Every Maldivia 45 that will ever be launched begins here.
