CONSTRUCTION

Building process:
The hull mold is composed of three main parts with parting lines at the bottom junctions. Mold of the Platform and half-inner hulls is in one part to warranty the maximum of rigidity. The hull is built in Foam Sandwich infusion, with vinylester and Polyester resin. The structure is reinforced with monolithic areas, Twaron Impact process Aramid fiber and full carbon fiber areas like shroud chain plates, and horizontal stiffening spars. The deck has a white gelcoat finish. The deck is also made in Foam Sandwich infusion with monolithic / plywood reinforcements. Numerous areas are made in full carbon fiber: The roof and its stiffening, deck stiffening spars, mast foot area and mast pillar. Structural main bulkheads are made in infusion Foam/Carbon sandwich. To provide the best toughness, every opening (doors and technical holes) is integrated and reinforced during the infusion process.

Structural integrity:
The hull/deck/bulkheads joint is glued and continuously laminated. Full carbon fiber lamination joint is applied for the main bulkheads and floor frames. The hull and deck are as solid as though they were cast in one piece, guaranteeing an outstanding strength and lifespan.
