Newport Oregon area chosen for Marine Mammal Institute

Hi all,

Under the heading of "why we choose to build our power catamaran future here" - the Newport/Toledo area continues to attract tremendous interest and funding to further the Pacific marine studies and pursuits.

Here is a link to news of an exciting new research facility that has been given the green light and will be up and running over the next few years. Above is a shot of the Pacific Storm (good name!) which is one of three reseach vessels donated to the new facility by fishing families. Great news!

For those waiting for the 3D interior shots....they are coming! We are doing some heavy duty number crunching to create the detailed looks so thanks for your patience! They will be worth the wait I hope and help show the great livability and functionality of the Pacific Expedition range of power catamaran yachts.
