Able Apogee 50

HULL

The FRP hull is hand laminated in one piece using a single-element female mold. 

Materials include a combination of non-woven biaxial glass, unidirectional roving and Kevlar reinforcement in particularly stressed areas such as the forward position of the hull and the turn of the bilge at mid-keel. 

The core consists of Baltek one-inch CK-100 end-grain balsa below the waterline and CK-57 between the waterline and the sheer. 

Notably, hull core is omitted in all areas of thru-hull penetration in lieu of solid glass. 

Resin throughout the hull is 100-percent vinylester. 

A system of stringers and structural floors is glassed in immediately after the last layer of laminate to ensure a strong primary bond. 

Additionally, all major bulkheads are bonded to the hull and deck, with Airex foam fillets to optimize cohesion.

DECK

The hull-deck joint is accomplished by means of a double inward flange, an anodized and perforated aluminum toe rail, thru-bolts and 3M-5200 sealant/adhesive. 

The deck itself utilizes polyester resin and is cored with one-inch Baltek end-grain balsa except where solid glass is built up in areas of hardware attachment. 

Deck fittings are thru-bolted and carried by G-10 backing plates. 

Each chain plate is engineered to carry more than the entire weight of the boat at any given time.
