March 23th 2007: Icon

The Icon 48 (design no. 143) will be built by “K & M Yachtbuilders” in Makkum. The yacht was originally designed in composite, but re-constructed in Sealium. Sealium is a marine grade aluminium alloy, created and registered by Alcan Marine and has a 15 percent higher welded yield strength than standard alloys. The yard will start at the end of 2007.
