Something new to me.

Yes, very cool?

Might make an interesting boat hull if turned upside down.

I have had 2 acquaintances who long ago constructed 2 pretty large (40-something foot?) heavily-reinforced cement-hull sailboats in their backyards that became quite successful saltwater cruising boats.
So I had the same thought as Capt. Bill1 when I saw the pics. A little design-doctoring with closed ends and substantial added inner support..... ? But still shaped and cured on land before attempting launch, of course.

"SV Portland"?
 
Those Ferro-Cement boat hulls were popular on and off from the 60's onwards.
