A characteristic feature of the yacht of the
basic E16 project is its wide hull, which makes the interior
of a relatively small vessel spacious enough and comfortable for
living and provides good stability. And the contours, carefully
designed from the point of view of hydrodynamics, ensure good
propulsion and seaworthiness (confirmed by model tests) with a
fairly simple and technologically advanced outer hull plating.
The technology is focused on assembly
conditions without the use of complex shipbuilding equipment.
Maximum use is made of parts cut out of sheet metal using plasma
cutting machines. Allowances and manual adjustment of parts are kept
to a minimum. To obtain a high-quality external surface, the main
thing is to follow the technological sequence of assembly and
welding of seams.
The American experience, or more precisely,
the idea of a design that does not have profile parts, prompted the
idea of producing projects for self-construction, where all the
parts of the vessel are cut out on CNC plasma cutting machines. This
was the reason to accept the E16 project as the base for a number of
low-speed steel yachts of similar dimensions - yachts of the family
- steel yachts Atlas-17, Atlas-17M, Botsman and Lotus-17, the
latter can be in steel, aluminum or aluminum-plastic design. |
