Are the hulls foam filled, sealed air space, or open?

[foilcats]

can be foam filled if wanted, as a standard i offer foam under floor in the cavitys, so it will only submerge, the deck os free draining and hand have acess to the inside of hulls to bilge it by hand bilge pump or place small 12v pump, if you want to fill it with the foam during molding process maybe can cut weight of hull down to around 150kg, as it strengthens the hull with the inner foam, theres alsorts of configerations it all costs and needs time to sort it, the materials we use is the UV proof ones that the best water tanks are made of, doing a karaka green one for a customer next week hes putting a 40hp etech on it as it is tiller but has E start and motor trim on tiller handle, also will be doing a 3m and 5.5m model this year

Heavy?
I know this has been a major downfall with plastic boats before

SEA HULL 3.9, Hull only
$5300 inc GST

And quite expensive compared to anything comparable I would look at as a dinghy.

Also can seal air space if wanted, as standard its got some holes into it for rods

its 200kg which is similar to a cat in aluminium this size, can be made lite weight to the point can make just bottom skin and not twin skin,
i know the 3m boats can get down to approx 70kg, this is a large boat conparable to 4.2m mono hulls,

And quite expensive compared to anything comparable I would look at as a dinghy.

its competative already depends what its compared to,
we can sharpen the price a little, my problem im not the manufacture, just own the mould,

Are your boats also made from Roplene or another polymer?

[foilcats]

I am learning as we go, i see alot of options and are looking for consultancy in this area, will make it from what ever is specified by the buyer if the raw materials are in hand and if the manufacture agrees they can do it sucessfully

I watched the you tube video on this little boat and it looks impressive,seems to get along ok. I wonder how it go's in rough water.

If I converted the weight correctly, the website lists it as 440 lbs. Is that correct?

Sure looks like it

Standard Boat Weight 200kg, Maximum 250kg,

Like I said, pretty heavy
@ 200kg its 100% + heavier than a tinny
3.85 Vnosed punt = 92kg
4.1 = 114kg

114 sounds a little lighter, I like the faithful tinny, but you are right the plastic boats have had a problem with weight in the past,even a small 1 man kayack is 20+ kilo's.
