SPECIFICATIONS
CONSTRUCTION
RCD Status:
• Our understanding is the vessel is CE-certified by French Merchant Marine to category A
Hull, Deck & Superstructure Construction:
• The Amel Super Maramu has a construction technique that is absolutely unique in the industry. The yield is an extremely strong and solid one-piece hull and deck assembly; a true monocoque.
• The hull uses as solid laminate of biaxial fiberglass cloth and is moulded in one piece incorporating one piece/non-spliced lengths of biaxial cloth running from bulwark, down through the keel/centerline, and up to the opposite bulwark.
• The deck assembly is built in a similar fashion but with a core of Baltek vertical end grain balsa in strategic horizontal areas to enhance stiffness and is insulation from heat and noise.
• Furniture and structural bulkheads are installed whilst the hull remains in the mould.
• Deck assembly is joined to the hull whilst hull remains in the mould with six layers of biaxial cloth to marry the hull and deck with a homogeneous fiberglass matrix to ensure a strong and leak free hull and deck join.
• Two coats of antifouling paint with primer
• Two watertight bulkheads (forward cabin and aft cabin)
Keel & Rudder:
• Wide low aspect ratio encapsulated keel with flat bottom to allow grounding.
• The keel has long wings, which not only aids stiffness but also act as pitch stabilizers when going 5 knots or better.
• The propeller is mounted on the trailing edge of the keel to protect propeller and also reduce noise and vibration in owner’s cabin.
• The rudder is hung from a massive full-length skeg assembly that can support the entire laden weight of the vessel in case of a grounding.
• The rudder shaft has a conventional stuffing box.
• Keel and skeg are solid laminate for maximum strength
