All external fixtures and fittings including mushroom vents, Port holes, Navigation lights and windows are chrome and polished aluminium which make them virtually maintenance free. The steel shell was insulated with foil backed PIR insulation and for extra insulation Rock wool Was used to make sure the steel work will retain maximum heat in extreme winter conditions. To complete the build we have fitted a hardwood cratch on the fore deck of the boat with a removable cratch cover.
9mm ply was used to line the shell with solid Ash mouldings to form panelling to the cabin sides. The roof is lined with tongue and groove style boards machined in our own workshops and finished in white satin paint. Running through the length of the interior of the roof is a drop down section designed to incorporate lighting and more essentially the electrical cables which are easily accessible by removable panels.
Around the windows we machined Ash to suit, with GRP port hole liners to match. The floor is an attractive wood style grey laminate fastened to the 18mm exterior grade ply wood sub floor excluding the bathroom which has a water resistant composite floor covering.
