Hull
The hull is single-skinned laminated GRP.
A structural inner moulding formed with
unidirectional fabric is bonded and laminated to the hull. Its structural role is important as it takes and absorbs the stresses at pressure points (chain plate tie rods, keel, rudder etc.) and spreads any loads, guaranteeing reduced strain on the hull. The surface to the inner hull makes it easier to clean and provides a better finish.
The hull gel coat is grey in colour.
