TECHNICAL SCHEDULE
Designed in accordance with European RCD
requirements and CE certification, these regulations
ensure that the Océanis Clipper 373 incorporates
the minimum safety requirements including:
• Safety and protection of persons on board.
• Durability of materials.
• Stability and safety.
• Safety when manoeuvring.
• Fire protection.
• Protection of the environment and reduction of
engine emissions.
HULL
The hull is singleskinned GRP construction.
Reinforced points (keel, rudder, chain plates, hulldeck
joint) help to strengthen the structure.
A structural inner moulding is bonded and laminated to
the hull. Its structural role is important as it takes and
absorbs the stresses at pressure points (shroud chainplate tie rods, keel, rudder, etc.), and spreads any loads
guaranteeing reduced strain on the hull.
The surface material of the inner moulding makes
cleaning easier and provides a better finish.
The standard hull is white in colour with blue and silver
livery. Steel blue is available as an option.
DECK
The deck is sandwich construction (glass fibre and
balsa) for an optimal strength/weight ratio
and excellent thermal and sound insulation.
A “diamond point” nonslip surface increases safety
over all areas of movement on deck.
HULL/DECK JOINT
An openwork aluminium toerail is bonded and screwed
to the deck. This assembly technique ensures watertightness of the hull/deck joint and provides safety
during movement on deck.
KEEL
The keels (deep and shallow draught) are cast iron.
To improve their durability the keels are given an anticorrosion treatment and improved finish in the factory
before assembly, using epoxy based coatings and paint.
The keel is screwed to the boat with a stainless steel
backplate and bonded.
STEERING
• Composite stock underhung rudder.
• Columnmounted pivoting steering wheel
(Bénéteau patent).
• Metal cable transmission system.
• Emergency tiller.
