STANDARD SPECIFICATION
Fully moulded in glass reinforced polyester (GRP) or (FRP) incorporating a double-skin foam filled construction using HLU-open moulding technique.

HULL AND DECK
The hull which is Dynaglass’ own special Delta-glide and Air-lube design gives both a soft and drag-free ride with extremely superb directional stability. GRP lay-up incorporates high strength “combomat”, glass, cloth and high density core, longitudinal and transverse stiffening combined with structural bulkhead giving immense strength. Foam filled bulkhead compartments for added safety thus making her virtually unsinkable.

Engine beds and fuel tanks are encapsulated with glass fibre and integral with hull.

Ventilating system is incorporated and positioned to enable air to be drawn down between the hull/deck walls and under floor creating a silencing effect which accounts for the very silent operation of the craft.

Deck lay-up incorporates a combination of coremat and marine ply parquet, reinforcing core stiffenings for high strength and rigidity. Deck has integral non-slip surface moulded in and is designed with an efficient self-bailing system. The standard deck layout incorporates
centre console and large walkaround space with coaming padded sides.
