FELICITY is a stunning example of the lasting value of a Picnic Boat and how proper maintenance of a well built boat can keep it in almost new condition. FELICITY was the first Picnic Boat sold with the Hamilton Jet System and has been lightly used summers in Northeast Harbor, Maine by the same family since new. Cared for by the same captain since new and stored inside a heated building, she needs to be seen to appreciate her condition and the care she has enjoyed.
NTRODUCTION:
The Picnic Boat was originally designed to draw from the designs of classic Downeast working boats but with the advantages of modern materials and naval architecture. A large cockpit and pilothouse provide room for family and friends while a simple interior below contains an enclosed head, small galley and everything needed for a night aboard. The addition of waterjet propulsion results in shallow draft and increased maneuverability and the heirloom level craftsmanship ensures lasting quality and value.
CONSTRUCTION:
HULL:
The hull is constructed using the SCRIMP resin infusion system with inner and outer skins of Kevlar/E-Glass hybrid knit fabric and a balsa core infused with Vinylester resign. The Kevlar provides puncture resistance and the core adds strength and stiffness in addition to adding thermal and acoustic insulation. The Vinylester resin provides resistance to osmosis and the infusion process fills any crevices in the core material, protecting against future issues with core or delamination.
