The Navyclean Story
When the brilliant idea of a floating station for cleaning boat hulls flashed into Ignaki Albaina’s mind, the first question he asked himself was “Why hasn’t anyone thought about it before?” Subsequent research confirmed that he was the first! His background in the health sector provided him with the leads to address the technical aspects of this innovative boat wash. In 2006, he set up Navywash and started the designing in Marseille. The same year, he gained certification by the PACA Maritime Cluster and the official launch of his first prototype took place in May 2013 at the Ifremer premises.
