Focus on Weight Reduction

Featuring MJP 350 X waterjets, the VESPRO 55 is the height of CENTOUNONAVI’s commitment to excellence. Crafted with precision and lightweight engineering, the
vessel’s hull boasts a remarkable 30 percent weight reduction, showcasing the
shipyards commitment to sustainable solutions. This emphasis on weight reduction

waterjets resulting in fuel efficiency.
