Our Teak on glass model combines the practicality of GRP with the beauty of wood. It is constructed in the same ways as our All GRP model, however there is a recess in the deck into which teak veneer is inlaid. In all other aspects the Dragon the same as our all GRP model. In all other aspects the Teak-on-glass Dragon is the same as our all GRP model. 1. Spinnaker chute version - This has the traditional hatch in the bow of the boat through which the spinnaker is launched. This style boat would usually have a traditional cleat beam under the cuddy. 2. No spinnaker chute version - The spinnaker is launched by the crew from a bag under the port side of the cuddy. This style of boat would usually have no cleat beam. The no spinnaker chute version was developed primarily for use in Championship style racing where the courses sailed are windward leeward style, these boats have less equipment in the bow (ie chute, hatch, wet spinnaker). 3. Traveller beam boat- The cockpit has a full length traveller track running from side to side 4. Barney post boat - The cockpit has a centrally mounted console The Barney post option offers more room in the cockpit and was developed for teams sailing with 4 crew, however many crews prefer this style of boat. The spinnaker chute/no chute and traveller/Barney post options are really a personal choice. The internal structure includes a super stiff floor web with improved water drainage and buoyancy throughout. The superior cockpit drainage is via one way valves, manual and high capacity electric pumps. Hull and deck colours and design are optional - including the addition of waterlines if required.
