Gurit customer SL Racing Ltd shares insights about the design and development process for Emma Twigg's Olympic medal-winning rowing boat. 🏅 Read about how Gurit played a part in the structural optimization. "The focus of our design was to find a way to dramatically increase the stiffness of the centre section of the vessel in a way that was practical to implement without adding any weight." Yoan Stephant, Gurit Composite Engineer #Lightweighting #PerformanceBoats #CompositeMaterials
It’s not every day you get the opportunity to design a boat to compete against rowing’s top athletes racing in the world’s most esteemed boats. When we got the green light to design and develop SLR Advantage for Emma Twigg to race in her national and international campaign, we knew it was never going to be one round of changes to deliver a fast boat to compete against the world’s best, but with Emma as part of the design team from the start of the process, SL Racing had a direct feedback loop to adjust and refine throughout the SLR Advantage design journey. Hear from Emma what it was like to co-design and race in SLR, and read more about what went into the innovative design that has everyone talking in our article. https://lnkd.in/gnMvRknE #SLRacingNZ #Rowing #NZMade #RowingBoats

Congratulations to Southern Wind Shipyard on the presentation of the SW123. We are delighted to continue our long relationship with the yard, having developed the composite structural design of the yacht, which is being built with Gurit Corecell™ structural foam core and our PRIME™ epoxy infusion system. #Marine #CompositeMaterials #SouthernWind @southernwindofficial
We’re proud to officially present our new flagship, the SW123, the largest yacht built to date by the yard. This groundbreaking project not only expands our portfolio of high-performance luxury Smart Custom yachts but also takes the concept to unprecedented levels. SW123 is a Smart Custom yacht reimagined at the highest level: responsible, sophisticated, performance-oriented, elegant, and ocean-going. "The SW123 is based on a versatile design platform that can be adapted to suit her owner’s expectations and intended usage. Whether the preference is for a long-range bluewater cruiser, regatta champion, or successful charter yacht, the SW123 can be optimized to match the design brief of the owner’s dream yacht. Following the Smart Custom philosophy, the initial platform has been created so that owners can adapt certain features to their objectives while leaving the reliable and tested base structure untouched," Andrea Micheli, Southern Wind CCO. The first unit of SW123 is already under construction, with launch scheduled for February 2027.
