Not just any voyage, Yali 3.0, our sustainable energy vessel, undertook an odyssey. It began on the tranquil waters of Ukkadam, a stark contrast to its ultimate destination - the churning Bay of Bengal. The successful testing and development at Ukkadam had instilled confidence, but to truly unleash Yali's potential, we craved a more rigorous proving ground. Through meticulous research, we identified the waters off Pondicherry as the perfect crucible, mirroring the waves and currents Yali would face in Monaco.

  The spirit of the golden eagle is one that inspires awe and power, and it’s no surprise that it has become the focal point of an exciting new project. An energy-efficient catamaran, designed with the sleek and aerodynamic design of the bald eagle in mind, is being created by a team of innovators driven by the desire to create a sustainable vessel. But our vision extends beyond mere performance. Sustainability is at the heart of this project. That’s why the team has been working tirelessly to design the cockpit of the catamaran using natural fibers that boast an impressive weight-to-strength ratio. After rigorous testing, the team discovered that pineapple fibers were the best material for their purpose. Not only are pineapple fibers exceptionally strong and durable, but they also excel in impact resistance tests and are marine-proof, making them the perfect choice for the cockpit construction. To enhance the pineapple fibers, the team will be integrating carbon fiber, an incredib...
