[worldcruising] Building material question...


Subject: [worldcruising] Building material question...

I was looking around the YachtWorld "Boats for Sale" site and ran across this:

http://yachtworld.com/boats/view_result.cgi.en?boat_id=44488&units=Feet¤cy=USD&listing_id=1930&page=&mls_true=

It's a custom Trimaran, built with epoxy and foam core....

Is this good, bad, or neither?

I would suspect that a foam core would mean less weight, but what about
structural integrity?

Anybody got any experience with this type of construction?

Chuck
