Vaan Yachts have launched a finish on their aluminium catamarans called VIVID ALU which shows the tough and strong aluminium hull blending with sustainable and luxurious cork decking. The large glass surfaces ,glossy roof and rollbar complete the signature Vaan aesthetic. . Vaan Vivid Alu does not have to be repainted. Maintenance is mostly just cleaning, and scratches are simply re-sanded. On top of that, Vivid Alu is at least 100kg lighter than a painted hull.  . #eco #sailing #yacht  #aluminium #design #madeinholland @Vaan
