Design categories

CATEGORY A The boat is designed for sailing in winds that may exceed force 8 on the Beaufort Scale and in waves of a signiﬁ cant height of 4m and more and the boat is to a large extent self-sufﬁ cient. Unusual conditions such as hurricanes are excluded. You may meet with such conditions when you sail long crossings, for instance across the oceans, or close to the shore when you are not protected from the wind or waves over several hundreds of nautical miles.

CATEGORY B The boat is designed for sailing in winds that do not exceed force 8 on the Beaufort Scale and in the corresponding waves (waves of a signiﬁ cant height inferior or equal to 4m). You may meet with such conditions when you sail offshore or close to the shore when you are not protected from the wind or waves over several dozens of nautical miles. You may also meet with such conditions in inland seas of a sufﬁ cient size to be able to give the wave height in question.

CATEGORY C The boat is designed for sailing in winds that do not exceed force 6 on the Beaufort Scale and in the corresponding waves (waves of a signiﬁ cant height inferior or equal to 2m). You may meet with such conditions in exposed inland waters, in estuaries and in coastal waters with mild weather conditions.

CATEGORY D The boat is designed for sailing in winds that do not exceed force 4 on the Beaufort Scale and in the corresponding waves (occasional 0.5m high waves at a maximum). You may meet with such conditions in sheltered inland waters and in coastal waters in ﬁ ne weather.

NOTE : The signiﬁ cant height of a wave is the average height of the upper third of the waves; this corresponds more or less to the height of a wave an experienced observer can assess. Some waves will be twice as high as this value.

Construction

The hull of the PRESTIGE 500 is made of laminate layers of ﬁ breglass and polyester resin with sandwich and an integrated osmosis barrier coat. Frames and structural counter mould bonded and laminated to the hull, integrating supports for technical equipment: this is the way the structure of the hull is. The non structural areas maintain direct access to the hull.

The deck is made of laminate layers of ﬁ breglass and polyester resin with a sandwich composition suited to the different types of surfaces (ﬂ at areas, reinforced areas).

RECOMMENDATION

2.2

Careening

 MAINTENANCE

The materials used to build your boat were selected for their high quality and performances. Nevertheless they require a minimum maintenance to be protected from outside attacks (salt, sun, chaﬁ ng, et...).

To keep her best look, besides her rinsing with fresh water after each trip, you shall polish and shine the gel-coat periodically with cleaning products you will buy at your dealer’s.

For possible stubborn stains or scratches, please contact your dealer; he will be delighted to give you the proper advice.

A periodical careening of your boat will keep her original performances and avoid any adhesion of marine vegetation.

The type of the water where you boat sails determines how to choose the antifouling paint as well as how often to carry out these careenings.

Please contact a professional for advice.
