Hull and Structure
CONSTRUCTION
The X43 hull is a composite construction, moulded in a 5-axis-milled female tooling. X-Yachts hulls are built using the latest construction technologies with a vacuum-infused, post-cured epoxy construction.
The hull is a full sandwich construction, using foam core, biaxial E-glass skins and local E-glass unidirectional reinforcements strategically positioned for strength and weight optimization.
BULKHEADS
Structural Bulkheads
All structural bulkheads are securely bonded to hull and deck. All bulkheads of marine plywood in thicknesses between 12 and 20 mm.
Watertight Bulkheads
At the forward end of the boat watertight bulkheads separate the anchor compartment, sail locker and interior accommodation for safety and reassurance in the event of a collision.
KEEL
The keel structure consists of a hot galvanised, high strength steel frame which forms an integral part of the hull structure. It is capable of absorbing loads from keel and mast as well as shock loads in the event of grounding. Integrated limber holes are positioned in order to allow water to run to the central keel bilge.
The keel structure also has an integrated single point centre hoist for easy and safe lifting and launching.
The keel consists of antimony hardened lead T-bulb bolted and glued to cast iron fin for high strength, low centre of gravity and comfortable sailing performance. The standard keel is 2.20 m.
Ballast weight with the standard keel is approximately 3,800 kg (8,380 lbs).
There are two optional keel drafts; shallow draft L-keel of 1.85 m and a deep draft T-bulb keel of 2.50 m is also available.
Each keel is encapsulated in three layers of CSM E-glass with epoxy matrix and faired to original keel section templates.
The keel is securely bolted to the structural steel keel frame with stainless steel bolts and faired.
DECK CONSTRUCTION
The deck is a hand lay-up, full sandwich construction. The foam provides strength and insulation.
The deck uses a polyester resin system and the skins are mainly biaxial E-glass layers with local unidirectional reinforcements strategically positioned for strength. In load bearing areas, such as under deck fittings, either plywood or aluminium replaces the foam core.
DeckTEAK DECK
