The vessel construction is of Airex foam sandwich with unidirectional glass and Kevlar, and carbon-fiber compression space frame is built into the deck, Crossbeams are unidirectional glass/carbon fiber composite. The result is a very stiff, very strong structure. Stability is achieved by 1) a wide 32 foot / 9.75 m beam, 2 ) a moderate 50 foot / 15.5 m mast, 3) outriggers' shaped with high buoyancy forward and tapering aft to reduce pitching 4) high buoyancy outriggers 200% of total boat displacement (plus central hull watertight compartments up to 250% buoyancy).
