A Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) or fiberglass hull is made from a composite material that combines glass fibers with a plastic resin. This material, often referred to as fiberglass, is renowned for its lightweight and high-strength properties, which contribute to a durable and resilient hull structure. The glass fibers provide tensile strength, while the resin binds the fibers together, creating a strong and flexible composite material.
One of the key advantages of a GRP hull is its resistance to corrosion and moisture, making it well-suited for marine environments. Unlike wood, fiberglass does not rot or require regular maintenance to prevent deterioration. Additionally, the smooth surface of a GRP hull reduces drag in the water, which can improve speed and fuel efficiency.
Although GRP hulls offer many benefits, including low maintenance and durability, they can be susceptible to damage from impacts and may require repairs if cracked or chipped. However, with proper care, a GRP hull can provide long-lasting and reliable performance. Overall, the combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and design flexibility makes GRP or fiberglass hulls a widely favored option in modern yacht construction.
Be the first to own one of these brand new grp / fibreglass hull yachts. There's no need to wait - they're scheduled to complete and be available for 2024 & 2025 cruising.
