Construction

RCD Status: The yacht conforms with the essential safety requirements of Directive 94/25EC or RCDII (2013/53/EU as appropriate (Recreational Craft Directive) and is categorised A – “Ocean” (or Cat B – whichever is appropriate)

• The materials used and construction methods are designed to construct a light, yet strong and stable hull, without affecting the strength and stiffness.
• Hull and deck, as well as all other parts of the yacht, are designed to take high loads, providing maximum product durability.
• Hull and deck are constructed in a negative mould.
• All visible hull and deck surfaces are in high quality white gelcoat.
• Materials and construction are controlled by Italian Shipping Registry (R.I.N.A.).
• RINA is also approving the yachts construction before issuing the CE certificate.

Hull, Deck & Superstructure Construction:

• Hull and deck are in a sandwich composite construction using E-glass and PVC Airex core.
• This structure allows the construction of a light hull, which withstands the multi-directional loads much better and is far more rigid than other simple laminated constructions.
• The core consists of a closed cell Airex foam of different densities preventing moisture to enter into the construction in case of a damage.
• The lamination process and bonding with the sandwich is done through a vacuum bagging process.
• Vacuum bagging is also used for the lamination of the deck.
• In the high load areas reinforcements with unidirectional and bi-directional Carbon fabrics are used and the Airex core will be replaced with a higher density foam or marine plywood.
• The thickness of the laminate construction is carried out in accordance to the requirements of the design-engineer and checked prior to construction by an official approved Technical Authority.
• Transverse and longitudinal reinforcements are made to the correct dimensions in E-glass and laminated with epoxy resin to the hull.
• The main bulkhead is in composite using an Airex core.
• The bow and the aft bulkheads are in composite.
• All the composite and plywood bulkheads will be well resin bonded and laminated to the hull and deck. This type of construction guarantees superior stiffness and strength compared to other silicone bonding systems. This represents a uniqueness of Solaris.
• The main and the fore bulkheads are in composite material.
• All the other bulkheads are made in marine plywood covered with oak, well resin-bonded to the hull and the deck.
• The tidy bilge is easily accessible.
• Cockpits, included seats and aft surfaces covered with 10 mm laid teak, bonded onto the deck with epoxy resins.
• The forward deck and side deck surfaces are painted with non-slip paint. An optional Teak deck can be fitted.
• Removable bathing ladder at the stern.

Keel & Rudder:

• The bulb keel is designed and built for high speeds and guarantees performance and stability.
• The keel ballast is made of lead/antimony.
• The keel fin is made of a resin-bonded steel construction, which is attached to the hull by stainless steel bolts.
• The keel is treated and protected by epoxy products.
• In order to ensure optimum steerability during sailing, a double rudder blade solution is provided as an extra.
• 1.000 mm steering wheels.
