The North Wind 47 is a sailboat built from fiberglass (GRP) with a rigid foam sandwich system. It is designed for ocean sailing, offering robustness, comfort, and safety, with excellent stability at sea.
The hull of the North Wind 47 is laminated with a rigid Plasticel foam, reinforced by stringers and frames, and the hull/deck joint is consolidated with through bolts to ensure its strength.
The North Wind 47 is ideal for ocean crossings thanks to its robust and secure design, providing excellent comfort for long sailing trips in the Mediterranean and Atlantic.
The GRP construction with a sandwich system ensures that the North Wind 47 can sail for several decades without signs of weakening, provided that it is properly maintained.
The GRP construction offers great resistance to deformation and osmosis, ensuring the longevity of the boat while reducing weight without compromising its sturdiness.
