Beneteau First 25.7 for sale in Crosshaven, Cork Ireland

• The hull is a single-skinned GRP laminate.
• A structural inner moulding formed with unidirectional materials is bonded and laminated to the hull at various points. This plays an important structural role by absorbing the loads and pressure points (shroud chain-plate tie rods, keel, rudder, etc.) throughout the structure, spreading these to reduce stresses on the hull. The surface material of the inner moulding makes it easier to clean and provides a better finish.
• The hull gel coat is grey in colour.
• • The deck is of glass fibre/balsa/polyester resin sandwich construction to achieve an improved balance of rigidity/lightness and optimal insulation.
  • All working and circulation areas are treated with ?Picot? non-slip coating. An inner moulding is bonded to the deck interior to improve its finish.
