Jules Marshall (the designer) backed off on the bling and focused on structure. When the bow thruster was installed I saved a piece of the hull that they cut out. The hull of the Navigator was solid fiberglass that was 1-1/4" thick. I mounted a piece on a framed display board and had it hanging in the salon. ........,, The hull was only 1-1/4” thick? I figured it’d be a lot thicker than that. Like it should have been 2-3” Where the heck are these posts coming from? They are ancient. But, 1-1/4" thick solid fiberglass is pretty thick for a boat hull. Could be Tim's thinking of a Boston Whaler style hull with a foam core inside much thinner fiberglass. |
