A Classic 40ft Sailing Yacht Built with Carbon and Fiberglass Construction

In this video, we take a closer look at a 40ft classic sailing yacht, built using modern composite construction techniques. The yacht combines a Koopmans design with a fiberglass hull and deck, carbon reinforcements, and prepreg components cured in the autoclave. We highlight key construction details, including the integrated carbon bowsprit, chainplate structure, continuous laminates, cockpit details, and interior solutions. The yacht is built as a single, fully laminated structure, reducing joints, minimizing risk, and improving long-term durability. After completion, the yacht will be finished by Loedeman in Elburg.
