A new joint project of Baikal Yachts and Alliance Marine Group for the construction of houseboat catamarans is launching a new project in 2018.
The catamaran has 4 cabins, saloon, bathroom and sauna and a huge flybridge for this size of yachts.
The catamaran is fully equipped with furniture, household appliances and everything necessary for living and traveling. The hull and superstructure are undergoing winter preparation, which makes it possible to use it as a country cottage in winter. You can take the hull out of the water once a season for one or two days to clean the hull from algae.
There are two control posts, one in the saloon, the second on the flybridge. On the spacious flybridge there are sofas, minibar, grill, sink, sunbeds.
The catamaran is suitable for renting, unlike the French penichets, it can be rented all year round, which allows you to increase the income of companies engaged in such a business.
Two engines from 60 to 350 hp allow you to get the desired speed. For a family accustomed to a leisurely comfortable life, you can install economical low-power engines, for lovers of speed, powerful engines are suitable, allowing you to accelerate the catamaran to 70 km / h.
It also provides for the installation of solar collectors on the roof of the hardtop. They can provide electricity to all household appliances and electric motors, which can be installed as an option. Electric motors can be either suspended or stationary. The battery charge is enough for a day trip of 300 km.
The hulls will be built from a new material similar in properties to Kevlar and carbon fiber, from a basalt fabric of special weaving. It even outwardly resembles these expensive materials, but unlike them, basalt is closer to the cost of fiberglass yachts. This successful combination allows you to build very durable cases and use the aesthetics of popular carbon fabrics in interior elements. The use of basalt fiber is associated with its unique properties, such as the specific strength of basalt fiber is 2.5 times higher than the strength of alloyed steels and 1.5 times the strength of glass fiber
External structural parts made of basalt fabric withstand many years of operation even under the negative impact of chemical and natural factors. The service life can reach 50 years. Super-thin basalt fibers, unlike glass and mineral fibers, are incredibly strong, resistant to vibration and not subject to the damaging effects of moisture. There are a number of undeniable advantages of basalt fabrics.
The finished material is environmentally friendly and natural, has good thermal insulation characteristics, chemical resistance, durability and resistance to biological influences. It does not burn, is not afraid of temperatures, mold, moisture and vibration loads.
It differs from classic fiberglass fabrics by the highest dielectric and sound insulation characteristics. Good resistance to high temperature and other adverse environmental conditions.
The main advantages of the material include the following:
- High sound insulation performance and vibration resistance
- resistance to alkalis and acids;
- resistance to temperature changes from -260°С to +600°С; do not emit toxic substances when heated and under the influence of an open flame.
- The material is absolutely non-combustible, with high heat resistance. Temperature of long-term use up to + 700 0С. Temperature of single (short-term) use up to +1000 0С.
- do not emit toxic substances when heated and under the influence of an open flame.
- It has good thermal insulation properties.
- is a dielectric and does not create an electric field;
high hydrophobic properties; Low hygroscopicity - 8 times lower than that of glass fibers. - low thermal conductivity and ability to withstand high operating temperatures;
flexible material; - does not emit harmful substances into the atmosphere, no smell;
- high resistance to radioactive radiation, ultraviolet and biological pollution;
- excellent vapor permeability (passes moisture, but does not form condensate inside);
- refers to non-combustible substances, therefore, meets all fire safety requirements;
- good sound insulation;
- biologically and chemically passive (not affected by fungus, mold, does not rot, is not destroyed by rodents and other pests);
The new catamarans are poised to replace the lack of deliveries of new yachts to Russia, and offer much more recreational opportunities for water travel enthusiasts. A hybrid of a sea catamaran and a houseboat made of a new basalt material will give a new impetus to the Russian yacht industry.
For delivery to remote cities, you can order a KIT kit for self-assembly.
Offer for catamarans made of basalt fabrics only for a series of 5 pieces!
