CONSTRUCTION

HULL

Heavy Duty GRP Moulding, hand laid up incorporating multi axial and unidirectional reinforcements. Thickness increases progressively towards the keel area. The keel box is an integral part of the hull layup and sandwich construction runs the entire length of the hull topsides. All main bulkheads are bonded into the hull at the main layup stage.

​

• Gelcoat: 9010 Ivory White

• Style lines: Oxford Blue

• Boottop: Oxford Blue and Red stripes

• Underwater: Clear gelcoat and Coppercoat antifouling system

​

DECK

Hand laid GRP sandwich construction using balsa core stiffening with plywood in high stress areas where fittings are positioned. Heavily stressed areas are additionally reinforced with unidirectional glass reinforcement. The deck is bonded to the hull through the entire length and to all main bulkheads resulting in a strong and integrated unit.

​

• Gelcoat: 9010 Ivory White

• Teak laid decking to ring deck, cockpit seats and cockpit sole

• Teak capping rail to hull and deck joint upstand

​

VARIABLE DRAFT KEEL

The fixed ballast is and iron casting which acts as a grounding plate and as transverse stiffening for the keel unit. It is fitted into a moulded recess in the hull area of the keel box with stainless steel fastenings. The aerofoil keel blade is cast iron and incorporates a stainless steel pivot at the leading edge. Variable draft is achieved by raising and lowering the blade with an electrically driven hydraulic pump, fitted with a manual back-up. All hydraulics are easily accessible for maintenance. The keel control is fitted at the helm pedestal, with a gauge showing the keel position. A removeable stainless steel pin enables the keel to be locked in the "up" position.
