CONSTRUCTION

Heavy duty GRP moulding, hand laid up to Northshore’s laminating system incorporating multi axial and unidirectional reinforcements. The keel box is an integral part of the hull layup and sandwich construction stiffening runs the entire length of the hull topsides. All main bulkheads are bonded into the hull at the main lay- up stage along with a stiffening grillage of transverse frames and longitudinal stringers. The engine bearings are also part of the hull structure. Solid GRP hull below the waterline.

​

HULL​

• Southerly Blue gel coat

• Ivory White boot top

• Ivory White style lines

• Tri-view vertical port lights to both sides of saloon

• Clear gel coat below the waterline

• Coppercoat antifouling system applied to underwater area

 

DECK

Hand laid up GRP sandwich construction. Heavily stressed areas are additionally reinforced with uni-directional 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: Ivory White

​

VARIABLE DRAFT KEEL

The fixed ballast is an iron casting which acts as a grounding plate and as transverse and longitudinal stiffening for the keel assembly. The fixed ballast casting is fitted into a recess in the hull and secured with multiple stainless steel bolts. The aerofoil shaped keel is cast iron and incorporates a stainless steel pivot pin at the leading edge, which connects it to the grounding plate. The keel is raised and lowered by a hydraulic ram powered by an electrically driven pump, also fitted with a manual hand operated back up. All hydraulics are easily accessible for maintenance. The keel control and LED position indicator are located at the helm position. A removable stainless steel pin can be positioned to enable the keel to be locked in the up position.
