A word class racing vessel, named Spirit of Hungary, produced by Zoltek Companies, Inc., that engages in the development, manufacture, and marketing of carbon fibres for various applications, recently completed the Barcelona World Race.
The 60 foot (18.3 metre) yacht recently sailed its first race since the construction was completed in 2012. Led by sailor Nándor Fa, the Spirit of Hungary circumnavigated the globe in just 110 days, 10 hours and 59 minutes.A word class racing vessel, named Spirit of Hungary, produced by Zoltek Companies, Inc., that engages in the development, manufacture, and marketing #
Built by Fa, the Spirit of Hungary was built using Zoltek’s Panex 35 carbon fibre. Unidirectional fabrics were used to assemble the hull of the deck, the beams, the keels, and the rudders. A combination of unidirectional and multidirectional fabrics with vacuum infusion was used to construct the interior structure. The resulting vessel was 30 per cent lighter than similar sized boats made of traditional materials, according to a press release.(GK)
