 “The Arrow was always the stiffest boat available and now sets a new level. The boat is built in all carbon and hulls are built in honeycomb sandwich. It comes with approved boards and rudders.

The boat is build close to Berlin in Germany.
I made the design, development and the prototyping.
I did some expansive tank testing as well to validate the CFD.

The serial production is now made by MX-Composys. They are 20min from Berlin at Werneuchen.
Features
– Improved platform stiffness
– Slightly more volume for lightwind performance
– Carbon wet-preg honeycomb hulls (stiffer, stronger and more durable than foam sandwich)
– Hull colour of your choice (all RAL colours available)
– High module carbon pre-preg beams for more stiffness
– Approved deck layout for with rail for maximum boat width to improve the righting moment when on the wire
– Reversed  / wave piercing bows for less drag and best sea keeping
– Carbon asymmetric dagger boards
– Push rod kick-up rudder system with carbon stocks and rudder blades
– Carbon tiller bar , Carbon joystick
– Landenberger trampoline (both grey and black possible)
– Mid sheeting (rear sheeting possible, too)
– Mast rotation to trampoline incl. cleats
–  Rudder and dagger board covers

Optional
Stern supports
Trolly (small or big wheels)

We now offer the early bird boats for 16000€ (Platform). For an aditional fee you can get Marström boards. All hardware is Harken or Ronstan.

    why insist on saying that the honeycomb is more enduring compared to the sandwich structure, is a pure fiction hat, indeed, it is demonstrated that the honeycomb has big problems of delamination, is worse than the sandwich.

    agreed, and the weight savings on such a small boat are nothing at all. plus you get water in the cells and then always heavier than a foam boat.

    honeycomb boats lasts much longer.
    enough prove for that
    think of M tornado

    no water in h comb as long inner skin is airtight
    Nikita, DNA ,Scheurer and this thilo boat are all great value for money. solid and stiff

    but feel free to stay with an foam boat.
