ENGINEERING & FABRICATION<br />

BUILT LIKE NO OTHER.<br />

RESIN INFUSION/VACUUM BAGGING – This pioneering technique<br />

makes our boats lighter, stronger and more fuel-efficient. Creating a<br />

vacuum seal bond between resins, hand-laid fiberglass cloth, and coring<br />

materials delivers greater strength and rigidity while shedding 20 to 40%<br />

of the weight in boats built with traditional materials and techniques.<br />

CUSTOM RESINS – Collaborating with world leaders in resin technology,<br />

<strong>Intrepid</strong> has developed specialized, low-density resins that provide<br />

unmatched adhesion and durability with up to 40% less weight.<br />

FABRIC REINFORCEMENT – To ensure the utmost in durability and<br />

virtually eliminate stress fractures, hand-laid uni- and multi-directional<br />

fiberglass fabrics are precision engineered to withstand the various<br />

stresses and loads that different parts of the boat must endure in<br />

prolonged exposure to rough seas.<br />

SMALL PARTS FABRICATION - Our small parts go through the same<br />

rigorous fabrication process as the boat’s hull and deck, which add<br />

strength and stability to every <strong>Intrepid</strong>.<br />

KNITTED FABRICS – Our fiberglass cloth provides a 20% increase in<br />

tensile strength over the woven fabrics commonly used in the industry.<br />

They require less resin to “wet out” which makes our boats lighter, and<br />

the lower profile of knitted fabrics creates less “print-through” for a<br />

smoother finish.<br />
