Offshore utilizes the best FRP materials available including solid hand laminated Knytex, bi & uni-directional fabric, and vinyl-ester resins below the waterline. This provides greater strength and reduced weight over conventional woven roving / mat construction. Above the water line, closed cell Core Cell material is vacuum bagged to the same bi- and uni-directional fabric using isothalic and vinyl-ester resins.
The hull is one integral laminated component. The main deck and cabin are one laminated component which is laminated to the hull. The boat deck, flybridge, and pilothouse roof are one fiberglass component which is laminated to the cabin structure. When these three individual modules are laminated together, an extremely strong, rigid, and watertight uni-structure is formed that meets or exceeds ABS requirements.
Four massive full-length stringers and multiple athwartship frames are laminated and bonded in the hull to minimize panel size and achieve incredible hull strength.
The bilge areas are divided into four sections to further increase watertight integrity. Each section has it's own automatic bilge pump, and all can be made common by gate valves in each section. Massive main bulkheads consist of multiple layers of balsa-cored fiberglass and each are insulated with multiple insulation materials designed for each bulkhead's sound requirements. Engineered insulation at engine room overhead & bulkheads and master stateroom bulkheads utilize multiple layers of varying types of sound-deadening and sound-absorbing materials to minimize engine noise and to also insure maximum privacy.
Incorporated in the hulls construction are two heavily laminated rub rails that are structural components of the hull. The substantial rub rails, capped with solid stainless steel, increase the strength of the hull sides and protect the hull when coming alongside a piling or dock. The joint between cabin sides and overhead is bonded with FRP and finished in gel coat instead of caulking.
The running gear is fully protected by an extended keel which also adds stability.
