CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATIONS
This custom-built MANDARIN 52 MOTORSAILER was specified by construction drawings approved by Seahorse Marine and reviewed by both the current/commissioning owners and an external Navel Surveyor multiple times during construction. She has a modified Chef’s Galley within the salon rather than in the companionway as per the standard Mandarin 52 configuration. Redundancy on major systems (electronics, autopilots) incorporated at design stage.
CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICS: Clear gelcoat was used below the water line and the first mat layer is installed resin rich using vinylester resin for blister control. Bottom sealed with double epoxy seal. Deck and topside lay-up include outside laminates. 3/4" balsa core for stiffness and temperature insulation and mat with double roving inside laminate. Overlapping and interlaced double lapping at stem and keel and UDR reinforcements at chainplates and stringer caps for extra strength. Bottom solid lay-up varies from 5/8" to 1 1/2". Quality bottom paint has been maintained -. Hand roller used for proper resin/glass ratio and to minimize air encapsulation. Hull to deck joint bedded in epoxy, bolted and double bonded inside and out with UDR. Interior construction to allow easy access to hull to deck joint. Four large FRP hull stringers. UDR reinforced and built high enough to act as saddles for sole plates. All interior furniture heavily glass taped to hull for additional reinforcement. All plywood WBP grade or higher.
