Nice, 2021
On this 40m motor yacht, the crew noticed a problem in the garage. When the garage door was open, to bring out the jetski or the tender, the waves made water run inside the garage. So, the boat needed a large coaming, invisible from outside, to protect the garage from the waves. But this new coaming had to let the tender and the jetski pass through it by apertures to go in water. We decided to build a main coaming with two apertures, and two easily removable doors.
First, we scanned the garage with our FARO FREESTYLE 2 to visualize in 3D the aperture of the garage door, but also the shape of the jetski and the tender.
Then, we drew our modifications and took the precise measurements of the garage door.
At the workshop, we started by building a mold in wood to create the coaming, with its two apertures reproducing the shapes needed. Separately, we also made the doors using the shapes determined thanks to the 3D. All have been built in fiberglass at our workshop by Infusion Technology.
The last step was to bring the coaming on the boat to laminate it. The crew can now open the garage without fearing the waves and easily remove each door when necessary.
