Offshore power-boat : out-board runabout
MASSIVE ATTACK
LOMOcean Design
- 5.9m
19' 4"ft
The vessel was conceived as a female molded production vessel primarily for water skiing but with occasional offshore racing capability. The owner's brief predetermined the structure because it had to be bullet proof at 90mph. The goal was to make the hull strong enough to withstand high-speed abuse whilst keeping it light. Another consideration was to keep the structure simple to build to enable the design to be put into production.
As a result 'Massive Attack' is quite hi-tech. It uses vinyl-ester resin, tough linear foam cores (Airex R63-140), a Kevlar outside skin to give impact strength and carbon fibre in the inside skin to provide stiffness. This laminate was then tailored for production by putting a layer of chopped strand mat into both skins, to allow the Kevlar and carbon fibre to be bedded down more efficiently into the mould.
