Renaissance subsidiary, Topaz Marine Engineering, a UAE-based full service ship building, ship repair and engineering services company, has been commissioned by the Government of Sharjah’s Royal Court (Al Diwan Al Amiri) to build and deliver one Catamaran passenger ferry boat (“Catamaran” or “ferry”).

With a focus on passenger luxury and efficiency, the Catamaran will be designed to accommodate 40 people, with passengers all seated on the main deck. It will be used to transport people between mainland Sharjah and the Abu Musa Island, situated 70 kilometres offshore. The ferry will be built at Topaz’s Nicocraft Shipyard in Abu Dhabi and is scheduled for delivery in January 2013.
