Hull

The hull is made of stable, glass fibre reinforced polyester laminate. All laminates are hand-laid. The standard hull comes in white with a double narrow boot-top in dark blue and a decorative double stripe at the top in the hull, also in dark blue. 2 special U-profile iron bars are laminated into the keel section for the keel suspension.

Keel and rudder

The keel is a 1.40 m deep fin keel made of cast iron with a keel weight of 720 kg.. It is bolted by 4 stainless steel bolts of 20 mm each onto two steel U-profile carriers which are laminated into the keel section of the boat. The rudder is free-standing and fastened to a small skeg, which is laminated firmly onto a stainless steel rudder post with a stainless steel rudder shaft, 25 mm thick.

Interior furnishings

The saloon berths and the forecastle berth are made of a GRP section, which is laminated into the hull, increasing the rigidity of the boat. The bent-boards in the cabinet sections are made of wood (with matt lacquer finish). The bent-boards at the end of the quarter-berths and in the aft locker seats are made of stable marine plywood, and given a topcoat. The section of the saloon berth which runs into the quarter-berth is coated with a GRP inner lining.

Engine

As a standard, an engine mount with a reinforced surface is available, to which an outboard motor of your choice can be attached with up to 6 HP.
