The North Wind 47 is a sailboat built from fiberglass (GRP) with a rigid foam sandwich construction. It is designed for ocean voyaging, offering durability, comfort, and safety, with excellent stability at sea.
The hull of the North Wind 47 is laminated with rigid Plasticel foam, reinforced with stringers and floors, and the hull/deck joint is secured with through bolts to ensure its strength.
The North Wind 47 is ideal for ocean crossings thanks to its robust and secure design, offering excellent comfort for long passages in the Mediterranean and the Atlantic.
The GRP construction with a sandwich system ensures that the North Wind 47 can sail for several decades without signs of weakening, provided proper maintenance.
The GRP construction offers high resistance to deformation and osmosis, ensuring the boat's longevity while reducing weight without compromising its strength.
