CONSTRUCTION

HULL

Heavy duty GRP moulding, hand laid, 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 main lay-up stage along with the stiffening grillage of transverse frames and longitudinal stringers. The engine bearers are also an integral part of the hull structure.

• Southerly blue gelcoat

• Off white boot top and style stripes

• Clear gelcoat below waterline

• Antifouling

 

DECK

Hand laid GRP, sandwich construction. Heavily stressed areas are additionally reinforced with unidirectional glass re-enforcements. The deck is bonded to the hull through the entire length and to all the main bulkheads, resulting in a strong and integrated unit.

• Off white gelcoat

• Teak laid ring deck

• Teak capping rail to hull and deck joint upstand

​

VARIABLE DRAFT KEEL

The fixed ballast is an 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 in the 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 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 removable stainless steel pin enables the keel to be locked in the “up” position.
