HULL, DECK & SUPERSTRUCTURE CONSTRUCTION

• ●  The hull, internal structure and deck are constructed of carbon sandwich.

• ●  In the forward slamming area Corecell is used, and the rest of the yacht is kevlar

  honeycomb.

• ●  Sprint resin infusion holds the structure together with maximum strength and

  minimum weight.

  Keel & Rudder:

• ●  Canting keel to +/- 40 degrees with 5 degrees of incline axis.

• ●  Twin forward daggerboards, inboard triangulation.

• ●  Twin fixed rudders – composite stocks.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS

• ●  As a part of the weight-saving design concept the Volvo 65 employ 24-volt DC electrical systems.

• ●  This allows weight saving by minimizing wiring size compared to a more common 12-volt DC system.

  Mastervolt lithium-ion batteries save as much as 70% in weight over more traditional battery technology.

• ●  These are recharged via two NEW heavy- duty Mastervolt alternators with 150- amp output.

• ●  The alternators are driven by the main engine, as comparatively low-current- draw equipment, high alternator

  output, and a very high recharge acceptance rate for the lithium-ion batteries, engine run time is minimized.

• ●  It takes around one hour a day to bring all systems up to full charge, minimizing diesel fuel usage, meaning less fuel – therefore less weight needs to be carried onboard.

  Battery Banks:

• ●  2 x Mastervolt Lithium batteries saving around 70% of the weight of traditional batteries with the additional
  benefit of being very robust.

• ●  Battery charger. Alternators (NEW 2023):

● 2 x 150 Amp Mastervolt alternators on the main engine. PLUMBING SYSTEMS:

Watermaker:

● SPECTRA watermaker – Cape Horn Xtreme model. Can be run on one pump for efficiency or two for speed. 15G / hour.

• ●  Full NDT in Summer 2022.

• ●  99.4’ / 30.30m rig height.

• ●  7’ / 2.14m bowsprit length.

• ●  The deck-stepped mast has a tube length of 28.4m (98’) and is built from High

  Modulus Carbon Fibre.

• ●  Mast was designed in-house by Southern Spars using the DesMan and RigCalc

  software packages, integrated with the North Sails design software.

• ●  Structurally, there are 202 pieces of Carbon Fibre pre- preg in each mast tube, with

  an additional 52 patches of structural reinforcement.

• ●  The Volvo Ocean 65 sports a 7.68m racing box boom again built from high modulus

  carbon and weighing 68 kgs.

• ●  Its deep section provides maximum stiffness to weight efficiency and provides extra

  downwind sail area.

• ●  With internal locks at the outboard end of the boom, reefing is made efficient for the

  crew to manage in strong winds.

• ●  The rigging consists of nine separate stays and is constructed from intermediate

  modulus carbon fiber, with mainstays that have a 26-ton minimum break load.

• ●  The ECsix carbon rigging is four times lighter than comparative nitronic steel rigging.

• ●  It has a multistrand construction based on a bundle of small rods for safety,

  durability, longevity and flexibility in the toughest conditions.

• ●  Twin topmast backstays and checkstays with deflectors.

• ●  2 x Reaching struts.

• ●  Full set of furlers.

• ●  Boom.
