We’re breaking beams!

Throughout the development of the Corsair 880, safety in design has been of paramount importance. No expense has been spared and no stone left unturned when it comes to the engineering and structural testing of the entire design and build. Of course, it is quite easy to build something that is strong, or that is light. But to build something both extremely strong and extremely light requires extensive engineering, finite element analysis, testing, testing and more testing! Over the past few weeks we have been performing destructive tests on various beam construction methods, aiming to uncover the best method, providing both strength and weight optimization. Likewise, items such as bowsprits, booms and custom fabrications are also undergoing similar tests ensuring we are %100 confident in the quality of this new model, even before the first hull has hit the water. Once complete, each of these beams shall be capable of supporting over 3000 kg which is pretty impressive considering the entire boat weighs less than 2000 kg.
