 Expensive
hulls of yachts and motorboats need routine inspection. The
fiberglass plastic of hull is protected from water by the layer
of decorative coating. However, this protection is not absolute.
As a result of the water hydrolysis through the coating, the
liquid is accumulated in the fiberglass. This creates pressure,
from which the fiberglass is divided into layers (process of
delamination), the decorative layer swells and the phials appear
on its surface. The delamination affects the entire structure of
material. Speed of delamination depends on external temperature
and qualities of water. |

Fiberglass plastic also can be damaged by mechanical action. Any
scalings and cracks, even slightest, must be repaired to avoid
further spoiling of the hull. Deep delamination requires
immediate and serious repair. |
 We
analyze the state of hulls, repair holes and cracks, relaminate the
fiberglass. We offer restoration of the decorative layer, deck
re-gripping, gelcoats applying and hull painting. We can also
introduce alterations in hull construction using modern epoxy resins
and foams. |
