Since acquiring the Boon Boats Solo mould a year ago we have been working hard at improving the quality of the finished boats by improving the mould. We've used the experience gained in building over 160 Solos for Steve Boon, combined with our knowledge of epoxy foam sandwich boat building and attention to detail learnt from building International and Olympic classes. Significant improvements have been made to the accuracy of assembly, cosmetic finish and the structural stiffness of the boats.
The epoxy foils are being made out of the same aluminium tooling – ensuring consistency in shape and quality of finish.
We can offer basic fit hulls with shrouds plate, mast step and rudder fittings from finish right through to fully fitted boats to your choice of specification. We aim to keep bare hulls in stock and can fit out to order to get you out on the water quickly from point of order. New masts, trollies and covers are also kept in stock.
The cockpit floor has a standard the new foam non-skid floor installed as chosen by Charlie Cumbley on his new Winter Championship winning boat 5651.
