TECHNOLOGY
Americas Cup, Aerospace and Formula One technology informed a lot of
our development and composite techniques. Throughout this
project
we have harnessed the latest technology to refine, verify and optimise
the OUT95 including CAD, FEA, CNC machining, Tank testing, VPP
analysis, calibrated NDT and DT.
The geometry of the OUT95 is not simple and the challenge was
to create
a lightweight but easily transportable boat. A modular construction
allows the hull to be broken down into four components and a mast of
2-part sleeved construction facilitates transport via trailer or
container.
Everywhere within the OUT95 we have striven to reduce weight,
this has
the spiral effect of reducing the input loads into the structure. The
achieved displacement is less than 50 per cent of a Mumm 30.
