Incat Crowther builds dinner boat for Sydney

The Jackson can accommodate 700 passengers and 60 crew and was envisaged for dinner and cocktail-style events to be held in Sydney Harbour.

From the design phase onwards, Kelsian and Incat worked together Kelsian general manager of Business Development Marine and Tourism Anthony Haworth said.

The Jackson has a steel hull and aluminium super structure engineered to navigate the waters of the harbour in an environmentally sensitive way, the firms say.

Inside it has ‘pillarless accommodation spaces’ with high ceilings, a multi-level galley configuration and integrated drainage, water, electricity and communications systems.
