I truly honestly cannot believe what I am about to write here, but here goes.

I agree with Whoosh..there, I've said it.

These guys are in china and as such ahve very very limited access to the outside world. As such all they can do is "cold calling"...for them a boatwebsite may not be ideal, but may be their only avenue to gain some access to a marine audience quickly!

Having aid that...it does sound very "odd". I normally hear about these tenders via many contacts/channels/networks etc....so if they express their desire interest via some known shipyards, who would then hunt around for designs/naval architects, it would give some credibility.

There are many yards local to them that do have "access" to the outside world much more 'easily'.

On their website it is clearly stated that head of company is foreigner. I don't think 'access to outside world' is an issue here.

Besides we design boats for builders in China, but those are for real builders (not middlemen as this company) and there is no problem with 'access to outside world' at all.

Highly secure, fast Yachts (to 150’ LOA with min.1500nm range) for VIP delivery, entertainment and pleasure cruising. Each VIP stateroom must have attached Bodyguard quarters. (Fast wave piercing Catamarans included)
I have the concept for this one: take pretty girls as a body guard and they will save a lot of VIP stateroom space.

Ok, but the bathroom dimensions would increase so much that they would have to put the crew berth in the engine room.
