Composites

Performance

* The most useful load in the industry at "up gross". Ask us to prove it!
* New infusion composite construction process allows these larger floats to weigh in at less than
_-smaller floats that have less displacement.
* Extra floataion at no extra weight or speed penalty, for increased safety at gross weight.
* Very stable, no ventral fin required..
* Clean floats and aerodynamic step struts give a cruise speed increase over other designs.
* Super large sweet spot, ease of use and the most forgiving floats for novice and pro alike.
* Very slippery - minimal sensation of acceleration is felt after leaving the water.
* Getting on the step is reached very quickly to get you off the water and into the air fast.

Hull Design

* Double fluted design delivers superior strength to weight ratings.
* Molded - in boarding steps.
* Sharp edges for reduced drag and increased hydrodynamics.
* External load tie down mounts.
* Large flat deck with molded - in antiskid.
* Best design for performance in both rough water and smooth water conditions.

Construction

* No corrosion.
* No rivets mean no rivet leaks.
* Common aerospace E-Glass and simple easy - to - use vinyl ester resin.
* Non - sandwich bottom skin, makes any field repair an easy process.
* High impact sandwich core used on top and sides adds durability and strength.

Compartments

Six Watertight Compartments

* No large holes for rudder controls (causes easy flooding).
* Large access panels with integrated preflight pumpouts that use all stainless hardware.
* Four large storage lockers with super large access doors, useful for enhanced CG control.
* Optional floorboards for flat storage.

Hardware

Key Hardware Features

* Stout attach fittings for "up gross" strength.
* A mechanics delight for installation, a simple and complete kit.
*All fittings swaged to fit.
* Extensive use of anticorrosive 300 stainless steel throughout.
* Best cabin entry and fueling step layout - looks good, works great.

Hull Protection

* Aluminum keel wear strip that is rugged and easily replaced.
* Special aluminum chine rub strip designed to resist constant abrasion and provides another seam
_-overlap.

Spreader Bar

* New extrusion design with internal shear web.
* Impervious to crushing under forklift and clamping loads.
* Simple, high strength, lightweight spreader bar socket.

Water Rudders/Steering

* Simple external rigging.
* Utilizes large stainless tiller posts.
