Lightweight workboats advance development

Workboats offer a cost-effective transport solution with lower fuel use, shallow-water access and versatility, supported by new manufacturing approaches.

Support for the marine industry gains traction

The AISI has launched a programme aimed at supporting marine suppliers in the ship and boatbuilding, maintenance and repair, and associated services value chain.
 

The Aerospace Industry Support Initiative (AISI) is an intervention of the Department of Trade, Industry and Competition (the dtic).

The AISI is designed to foster industrial development and competitiveness in the local South African aerospace, defence, marine, and other advanced manufacturing industries.
