NEW PRODUCT
• Sketches were done somewhere mid November last year;
• When we got the green light for a new project, we have called Rob and went through a design brief and planned time schedule;
• Benchmark analysis has been done for most competitive boats:
• Beneteau First 35• Dehler 35• Archambault 35• X-yacht 34• J boat 109
• Rob with his team has done once more an outstanding job, so the actual work on plugs and moulds started in the beginning of December 2009;
• Currently we are waiting for the deck plug to be CNC milled and in next week we will already de-mould the hull;
• Planned official launching will be at Internautica boat show – May 2010.
First renders of actual hull and deck:

Where our boat is unique?What are the main advantages?
CUSTOMER BENEFIT - RIG:
The powerful rig has a non-overlapping headsail, allowing the chainplates to be set out on the rail to reduce mast compression.
With the gennaker the rig is easy to handle but a thrilling recipe for fast offwind sailing in the breeze.
I 13,77 m
J 4,03 m
P 13,49 m
E 4,63 m
Mainsail 38,6 sqm
Jib 30,0 sqm
Gennaker 110,0 sqm
CUSTOMER BENEFIT – CHINED HULL:
The chines in the E350’s hull will help the boat’s tracking ability at speed and clean off the wake, giving the boat improved high speed capability and control.
Loa 10,60 m
Lh 10,60 m
Lwl 10,10 m
Beam 3,50 m
CUSTOMER BENEFIT – TWIN RUDDER & WHEEL SYSTEM:
The 350 has a broad stern for increased form stability and power, which integrates well with the twin rudder & wheel arrangement, giving excellent control even at high heel angles.
CUSTOMER BENEFIT – T-SHAPED KEEL:
The keel on E350 has a very low centre of gravity for enhanced sail-carrying power, with a substantial bulb arranged in a T-shaped geometry beneath a low wetted surface area fin. More righting moment for reduced displacement and drag.
Displ. ~ 5000 kg
Ballast ~ 1390 kg
Draft 2,15 m
CUSTOMER BENEFIT – BOWSPRIT:
Retractable bowsprit for efficient asymmetric setting, bringing the centre of effort of the rig forward and enhancing control at high speed.
CUSTOMER BENEFIT – ADAPTIVE INTERIOR:
In essence the 350 is about the pure joy of sailing, but with very little compromise.
To this the interior offers surprising cruising comfort, giving the boat a MULTI-DIMENSIONAL appeal and high residual value.
