Going behind the scenes at Barton Marine highlighted the skill and craftsmanship involved in creating one of their robust blocks many of us rely on out at sea. It is truly a team effort and the care taken to ensure quality product is available for sailors around the world to use is clear. Here is a 40 second video to show how a Barton block is made. From metal work and moulding of the components, to the hand assembly and quality control at every step, a British icon is born. #bartonmarine #bartonblocks #deckequipment #marineindustry #britishmanufacturing

► Full test in Multihulls World N197: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/catamaran/gp70-and-then-cruising-became-fantastic ► This racy catamaran designed for fast blue water cruising was initially intended for series production by a well-known shipyard at La Grande-Motte, but ultimately, the project has been taken on by Trimarine, based on the Tagus River near Lisbon, Portugal. The GP70, built with 80% epoxy carbon sandwich, manages to limit its displacement to 17.5 t. This large multihull was designed to offer a very high level of self-sufficiency thanks to low consumption of onboard equipment, a large surface area of solar panels (3 kWp), an efficient watermaker and two imposing 264 US-gallon (1,000 liter) fuel tanks. Under sail, the GP 70 promises exceptional performance and the bridgedeck clearance guarantees excellent seakeeping behavior in big seas. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Trimarine Naval Architect: VPLP Overall length: 68’11” (21 m) Beam: 32’ (9.75 m) Draft: 5’3” (1.6 m) Air draft: 90’ (27.45 m) Light displacement: 38,580 lbs (17.5 t) Upwind sail area: 2,380 sq ft (221 m²) Engines: 2 x 80 kW Yanmar JH4 Fuel: 2 x 264 US gal (2 x 1 000 l) Water: 290 US gal (1,100 l) ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!
