Features

Better Joints

ArrowLock Joints

ArrowLock Hull Joints provide superior alignment, enhancing the overall integrity of your hull. They serve as essential structural members, contributing to a robust framework. These joints simplify the assembly process, making your build more efficient and streamlined. 

Core Structure

Integrated Structure

The G9's core structure is engineered for optimal stability, guaranteeing that foils and rigs are positioned accurately and held firmly in place. Each component of the core is essential in strengthening the overall structure, leading to dependable and resilient performance. Whether you're tackling tough conditions or aiming for peak efficiency the G9 is designed and built to provide unparalleled support and stability.

Multi-Materials

Multi-Material

3D printing offers significant advantages over traditional lamination, primarily by allowing designers to place materials precisely where they're needed and minimize their use in less critical areas. This targeted approach not only enhances efficiency but also optimizes the functionality of the final product. Additionally, various of plastics can be selected and matched to their best applications, ensuring that each component performs at its peak. This level of customization and material efficiency is a game-changer in design and manufacturing.

Removable Transom

Removable Transom

Exceptional access to your steering gear and sheeting system with our 3D printed transom. Designed for peak performance, it features a 3D printed TPU seal that guarantees watertightness, ensuring your setup remains safe and functional.

Don't Bow Down

Experimental Laminar Flow Interrupters

G9 design maximizes performance in heavy air downwind sailing by keeping the bow up. This strategic placement of reserve buoyancy helps prevent the tendency to "nose over," ensuring better steering control. Additionally, our experimentation with laminar flow interrupters aims to disrupt laminar flow over the deck during the critical phase of nose over, allowing faster recovery.

G9 Underdeck Sheeting System

Underdeck Sheeting System

Underdeck sheeting keeps everything simple and neat, providing a streamlined solution. Consideration given to functionality and design from the beginning ensures easy access to critical components within the system.
