Recreational Use of FRP Marine Composites Evviva’s light ship displacement of 420,000 pounds permits a cruising speed of 25 knots and top end speed of 30.6 knots with two MTU 16V396’s. The owner wanted a gel coat finish throughout, which required building the boat from over 180 female molds. Molded components included tanks, air plenums, genset exhaust ducts, and freezers. Bertram Bertram Yachts has built cruiser and sport fisherman type powerboats since 1962. Their longevity in the business is in part attributable to sound construction and some innovative production techniques. All interior joinery and structural elements are laminated to a steel jig, which positions these elements for precise attachment to the hucllo.mAbination of mat, woven roving, knitted reinforcements and carbon fibers are used during the hand lay-up of a Bertram. Christensen Christensen has been building a line of semi-custom motor yachts over 100 feet long, as illustrated in Figure 1-7 since 1978. The hulls are Airefxoam cored using a vacuum assist process. All yachts are built to ABSclassification and inspection standards. The yard has built over 20 yachts using the expandable mold technique popular in the Pacific Northwest. Christensen claims to have the largest in-house engineering staff of any U.S. yacht manufacturer. Their 92,000 square-foot, climate-controlled facility has six bays to work on vessels at various stages of completion. The company is currently concentrating on yachts in the 120-150 foot range. Delta Marine Delta Marine built its reputation on building strong FRP fishing trawlers for the Pacific Northwest. Unfortunately, the fishing industry has dropped off and the FRP boats show little wear and don’t require replacement. Delta has found a niche for their seaworthy designs with yacht owners interested in going around the world.
