Integrated protection of superyachts and tenders - at refit or design stage? Either option will lend itself better to specific circumstances. Although there are advantages when incorporating armour into the design of a vessel, ballistic protection can be added during refit. By being involved in the initial design stage, it gives the naval architects and designers the opportunity to take into account the space allowance, weights and strains, required for our armour systems from the start of the project. Our experience enables us to highlight any ballistic weak points in the design and any potential installation difficulties. It is not practical to armour an entire vessel – particularly when we look at the scale of a superyacht. Therefore the more common route is to create an armoured space to where the vessels occupants can retreat in the event of an attack in order to remain secure until help arrives. This could be the entire master suite, an office area or similar space. It is also vital to ensure that control rooms are kept secure, enabling a much higher chance of evasion and call for assistance. Each project is different. Each owner, each Project Manager, each shipyard. ASL GRP work closely with designers and shipyards to ensure our armour merges into the superyacht environment, with no compromise to the yachts style or aesthetics. ASL GRP have worked with Europe's top superyacht builders and designers over the years - advising, designing and installing our armour into renowned yachts. 🔵  Protection for master suite & crew areas 🔵  Armoured/security doors 🔵  Internal wall-panel protection 🔵  Hull protection 🔵  Safe rooms / citadels 🔵  Tender protection For more information on our process, materials and pricing, please get in touch: sales@aslgrp.com #ukmanufacturing #ballisticprotection #stanag2 #armoursystem #defence #superyachtindustry #superyachtdesign #superyachtprotection #superyachtrefit #superyachts #protection #armour #bulletresistant

🔧🚤 Vessel Conversions on the Rise! 🚢➡️ 🌊 At Winterbothams we're seeing an exciting trend in the maritime industry: the transformation of warship and tug type vessels into luxurious superyachts! These conversions are not only a testament to innovative engineering but also a celebration of sustainability and creativity. 💡 🛥Converting these robust vessels into state-of-the-art superyachts involves intricate design and engineering solutions, ensuring they meet the highest standards of luxury and performance. Each project is a unique journey, blending history with cutting-edge technology and craftsmanship. These conversions offer a new lease on life for these formidable vessels, combining their strength and durability with opulent interiors and modern amenities. It's incredible to see the ways in which a warship or tug can be transformed. ⚓ We are excited to be more involved with these kind of projects, bringing our expertise and passion to every one and would love to hear from anyone that has this kind of work in the pipeline. 💬 #VesselConversion #Superyacht #MaritimeInnovation #EngineeringExcellence #Sustainability #LuxuryYachting #MarineEngineering #Transformations

The Falkirk Wheel is the world's only fully rotating boat lift, located in Tamfourhill, Falkirk, Scotland. This remarkable engineering feat connects the Forth & Clyde Canal with the Union Canal, allowing boats to be lifted 35 meters (approximately 115 feet) in a matter of minutes. Opened in 2002 as part of the Millennium Link project, the Falkirk Wheel was designed to replace an older system of 11 locks that had been in place since the 1930s. The innovative design not only serves a practical purpose but also stands as a striking modern landmark, attracting around 500,000 visitors annually. The wheel operates using a unique counterbalance system: when one gondola is lowered, the opposite gondola rises, maintaining equilibrium. This design requires only the power equivalent to that of eight domestic kettles to operate. The Falkirk Wheel is not just functional; it has been described as a work of art, with inspirations drawn from various sources, including Celtic designs and natural forms. #engineering #technology #technologies #scotland #boat #boatlift #innovation #canal

Symphony of Art & Science: Introducing Spear, the 140m trimaran yacht concept. A new collaboration between T. Fotiadis Design & Lateral Naval Architects. With its striking streamline design, Spear combines efficiency, comfort, and expansive open spaces to create an unparalleled cruising experience. From the moment you step aboard, you're greeted by the sleek lines and a streamlined profile that define Spear's aesthetic. Crafted with precision and attention to detail, every aspect of this superyacht is optimized for high-speed cruising, suitable for the adventurous owner. As there isn’t anything else in the market quite like Spear, with a length of 140m, 4650 GT, and a beam overall of 23m, it was difficult to find a suitable baseline to compare to. After consideration, a 110m monohull of 4400 GT provided the closest solution. At a generous cruise speed of 18 knots, the trimaran's propulsion power needs are 20% lower than the baseline 110m monohull: placing Spear’s power demand equivalent to an 80m monohull with twice the usable GT. Leveraging the larger dimensions, Spear offers a medium-speed engine at the core of the energy architecture, often found in large commercial vessels, providing a further 15% fuel saving per kW compared to a typical yacht’s high-speed engine. #tfotiadisdesign #lateralnavalarchitects #superyachtdesign #superyachtlifestyle #hnwi #design T.Fotiadis design GmbH Lateral Naval Architects

🌎🚢 FUN FACT TIME 🚢🌎 👀 This is for my connections just starting out in the industry! 💡 Did you know?... ⛵ Yacht construction involves the materials and techniques used to create the hull. Many modern yachts have hulls made from fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP), commonly known as fiberglass. ➡ The process involves layering thin strands of glass fibers in a specific pattern and saturating them with a liquid resin, usually polyester or epoxy. ➡ The fiberglass material provides a lightweight and strong structure, making the yacht more agile and fuel-efficient. ➡ The process allows for flexibility in design, enabling yacht manufacturers to create sleek and aerodynamic shapes. ➡ Additionally, fiberglass is corrosion-resistant, reducing maintenance needs and increasing the overall durability of the yacht hull. ➡ This construction method has become popular due to its versatility, durability, and cost-effectiveness, making it a staple in the yacht-building industry. #marinefunfact #recuitment #newjob #opportunities #marine #maritime #yachts #yachting #yachtfunfact

We strive for perfection. And that comes from knowing the materials. From high precision decking and cladding to reclaimed railway sleepers. Each material has different tolerances, and understanding these is what makes a project look perfect. #PerfectionInDetail #MaterialExpertise #PrennLandscapes #DeckingAndCladding #ReclaimedMaterials #GardenDesign #PrecisionCraftsmanship #OutdoorAesthetics #ExpertKnowledge #BespokeProjects #QualityCraftsmanship

Frequently Asked Question: Are there any space limitations? 🤔 🏠 AeroBarrier has been used in apartments as small as 500 sq ft and homes over 10,000 sq ft. As long as the space can be pressurized, it can typically be sealed. Additional blower doors can be added to increase the pressure in larger spaces. #Airtightsolutions #Aeroseal #BuildingEnvelope #EnergyEfficientHomes #Construction #VancouverBuilder #ConstructionTechnology
