A collaboration between Sicomin (Châteauneuf les Martigues, France), Skaw Crusing (Lorient, France) and composite boatbuilder Shoreteam (Colombelles, France) has resulted throughout the development of the Skaw (A) foiling cruising yacht. Constructed by Shoreteam and designed by Benoit Marie and Clément Bercault, the monohull scow brings collectively a high-performance foiling design with diminished environmental affect by the use of utilizing sustainable resins.

The Skaw (A) is claimed to characterize the first-ever foiling cruising scow yacht, crafted for optimum tempo, maneuverability and eco-responsibility. It is constructed using Sicomin’s high-modulus GreenPoxy resin choices, along with SR InfuGreen 171 for the infusion of larger parts and SR GreenPoxy 170 for hand laminating and bonding the secondary buildings. Every resins current the ability, sturdiness and top quality necessary for a high-performance yacht design and permit Shoreteam to achieve an ultra-lightweight 5,000-kilogram displacement and extreme mechanical effectivity necessary to achieve foiling.

Consistent with Benoit Marie, founding father of Scaw Crusing, the aim was for a yacht design that embodies distinctive effectivity and environmental accountability. “Our SR InfuGreen 171 and SR GreenPoxy 170 had been an important match for this formidable mission,” supplies Tom Kerriou, Sicomin. “We’re excited to see our sustainable GreenPoxy epoxy choices contribute to the success of this design and we stay up for supporting Skaw Crusing and Shoreteam in bringing this yacht to life.”
