On the right side of this page you can see the 2 stage vacuum infusion of the first Contest 60CS hull. Before the 1st stage infusion the mould is waxed and gelcoat is applied in the mould. Then the first special layers are laminated by hand layup on the gelcoat to prevent print through of the mat structure in the gelcoat. Then the 1st stage of laminate is applied and vacuum infused. The 2nd Stage contains the area around and at the keel. The floors are also part of the 2nd stage to save time. The first yacht named GRAND CRIPIC is delivered to owner in 2 years after 1st designing begin.

The first Contest 60CS is now sailing in the Med's.
