Cored FRP is most often found in decking which helps keep down weight that will be
carried above the waterline. The addition of wood makes the cored structure of the boat
susceptible to rotting which puts a greater emphasis on not allowing damaged sandwich
structures to go unrepaired. Plastic based foam cores are less vulnerable. The phrase
'advanced composites' in FRP construction may indicate the addition of carbon fibre,
kevlar(tm) or other similar materials, but it may also indicate other methods designed to
introduce less expensive and, by at least one yacht surveyor's eyewitness accounts, less
structurally sound materials.

Contact Savage Yachts:Dinghy designs vary from small, stable, and slow craft for novice
sailors to lightweight, high-speed designs that are very difficult for even experienced
crews to sail safely and effectively. Australia's 18-foot skiff class are the fastest monohull
dinghies, reaching speeds of up to 40 kilometres per hour (25 miles per hour) even in
relatively light winds. Sailing has a reputation for being a boring spectator sport,[citation
needed] but skiff racing can be very exciting, particularly in unpredictable conditions
where crews struggle to keep their boats upright. Various multi-hull racing classes are
even faster. Various one-design dinghy classes are raced at the Summer Olympic Games.

Around the mid 1960s, boats made out of glass-reinforced plastic, more commonly
known as fibreglass, became popular, especially for recreational boats. The United States
Coast Guard refers to such boats as 'FRP' (for Fibre Reinforced Plastic) boats.

About Savage Yachts:

The motive force being the wind, sailing is more economical and environmentally
friendly than any other means of propulsion. A hybrid type of vessel is a motor sailing
yacht that can use either sail or propulsion (or both) as conditions dictate.

Boats have served as short distance transportation since early times. Circumstantial
evidence, such as the early settlement of Australia over 40,000 years ago, suggests that
boats have been used since very ancient times. The earliest boats have been predicted to
be logboats. The oldest boats to be found by archaeological excavation are logboats from
around 7,000-10,000 years ago. The oldest recovered boat in the world is the canoe of
Pesse; it is a dugout or hollowed tree trunk from a Pinus sylvestris. According to C14
dating analysis it has been constructed somewhere between 8200 and 7600 B.C. This
canoe is exhibited in the Drents Museum in Assen, Netherlands. Also other very old
dugout boats have been recovered. though a 7,000 year-old seagoing boat made from
reeds and tar has been found in Kuwait.

Most are single-masted Bermuda rigged sloops, with a single fore-sail of the jib or Genoa
type and a single mainsail. Spinnaker sails, in various sizes, are often supplied for down-
wind use. These types are often chosen as family vessels, especially those in the 26 to 40-
foot (8 to 12 m) range. Such a vessel will usually have many cabins below deck.
Typically there will be three double-berth cabins; a single large saloon with galley,
seating and navigation equipment; and a "head" consisting of a toilet and shower-room.
