• Vacuum system for the sandwich gluing.
• Where needed reinforcements are done in unidirectional and bidirectional lamination and stratification core substituted by plywood or more density inserts.
• The strength of resin-bonded laminates conform to the designer's specifications and are regularly controlled by their competent technical departments.
• The transversal (floor) and longitudinal reinforcements of the hull are made in E glass and carbon fibres and then resin-bonded to the hull.
• The main and the forward bulkheads are made in Airex composite.
