Join us for an in-depth exploration of Elan Yachts’ advanced composite technology, celebrating 75 years of innovation in yacht construction. In this video, we’re taking you on a tour through rich history of boat building and get to know you with sophisticated techniques behind our composite work, from the pioneering days of glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) in the 1960s to the advanced application of Vacuum Assisted Infusion Lamination (VAIL) technology in 2003. You will see how we create hulls, decks and components of Elan Yachts and learn about the intricate VAIL process, that ensures even resin distribution, optimal mechanical properties and significant environmental benefits. We also take you through the steps of creating a fore laminate, which is crucial for preventing osmosis and achieving flawless surface of the yacht. Explore the science and strategy behind selecting and layering various types of fibers and cell foams to construct yachts that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but exceptionally strong and durable.

Want to meet a Peacock Flounder? 👉🏽 Join us for a dive. ℹ️ Who’s that 1 Clever Fish Who’ll Never See You Below? While juveniles begin life with eyes on both sides of their body, the Peacock Flounder’s right eye migrates towards the left as they mature, leaving both eyes on one side looking to the sky. Pretty amazing for a fish that camouflages seamlessly with his perch, which he can not see below him, yet if blind or if his eye is damaged he will struggle to camouflage with his surround.
