Construction

This Seachange 43 has been built in GRP using the C-Flex construction method. Built by Woof Boats in the UK.

C-Flex is a unidirectional fiberglass building material originally developed for the manufacturing of custom boats. Since its invention, countless structures, marine and otherwise, of all shapes, sizes and complexity have been affordably built using this simple construction method. The design of C-Flex allows any form to be built using simple and inexpensive framing procedures instead of costly molding methods.

Each "plank" of C-Flex contains small semi-rigid rods in the longitudinal direction. These rods allow the fiberglass to hold its form while resin is applied to the cloth. This eliminates the need for a full mould as is used in traditional fiberglass construction.
As a result you have a very strong and heavy dispalcement go anywhere yacht. Its full dimensions are:

Displacement:   10,440kgs  (23,000lbs)
Ballast:               5450kgs    (12,000lbs)
L.O.A:                   43' 0"        (13.12m)
Beam:                 14' 1"        (4.30m)
