QUESTION: What is the Integral Strength-Grid System™?
ANSWER: It's a method of construction that is used to bond together all sub-sole components into a strong cohesive unit, which forms the backbone of the entire LRC SEries yachts. The tanks, instead of simply being dropped in place, are heavily laminated within the hull. The combination of lids, baffles, stringers, and even the sub-sole, all interact to form a very rock solid structure to spread primary sea loads over a very large surface area. As an added benefit, the tanks due to their extra strong integrated construction, even serve as a double-bottom.

Integral Strength-Grid System™
Water-tight Collision Bulkhead heavily glass bonded to the hull and structural dividers forward of it. This creates an extremely strong matrix structure.
Integral tanks, lids, baffles add tremendous strength to sub-sole structure to spread loads over hull. Lids will be heavily bonded so any surface of the tanks, will act as double-bottom.
Structural sub-sole will be laminated around it's entire perimeter adding a complete bonding between grid structure and hull.
Stringers are heavily glassed into position with extra heavy laminates and resins. Entire grid structure acts as a single strong unit.
