2017 American Marine blackwood
The Blackwood hull design is precisely produced utilizing the Blackwood exclusive HPI double hull foam core injected process. The Blackwood HPI process incorporates a structurally sound outer hull chemically bonded to a matching full length, complete inner hull. The process is continued with high strength, water proof, closed cell, structural floatation foam core injected under pressure between the two hulls. The outer hull is structurally sound without the addition of the inner hull. The 100% All composite outer hull is hand laminated utilizing fine finish exterior fiberglass matt, high strength structural biaxial fiberglass fabric, composite core material and a layer of Dupont Kevlar® over the entire bottom for extreme strength and puncture resistance. The outer hull is structurally reinforced with hand laminated full-length composite stringers and keel. The high-density composite transom is reinforced with hand laminated composite knee braces. The totally sealed and filled double hull structure eliminates the possibility of water intrusion into the hull. One of the most important benefits of the advanced HPI technology is undoubtedly the extreme safety factor built into every boat. The benefits of the HPI process are further enhanced through the use of the ShearWater exclusive process of chemically bonding the deck to the double hull creating a solid unitized one-piece structure. The Blackwood proprietary HPI unitized construction¿ method is initially very expensive to put into production. The inner hull is complex and time consuming to create. The inner hull mold and the outer hull mold have to be exceptionally strong to withstand the high internal pressure created during the foam injection process. The HPI process requires additional manufacturing space, additional steps in the process, and demands that the deck and the hull remain in their molds much longer than the typical construction methods. The additional time in the mold has the benefit of allowing the exterior gelcoat and fiberglass laminate the necessary time to thoroughly cure. The additional curing time is one of the most important factors that contribute to the Blackwood exclusive, exceptionally straight, brilliant, exterior gelcoat finish. This Blackwood exclusive technology creates a strong, durable, flex-free, unitized structure that cuts through waves silently and smoothly to deliver a comfortable and confident true sense of security. The unitized HPI process reinforced with Dupont Kevlar® produces products with such consistently high strength and durability that costly warranty repairs are virtually eliminated. Based upon fifteen years of trouble free experience with the HPI process, Blackwood Boats, LLC. offers a limited lifetime hull warranty with total confidence.
1973 American Marine / Grand Banks Laguna 10M
Built by American Marine, who are famous for their Grand Banks trawlers, the Laguna 10M is a sport cruiser with a cockpit large enough for fishing, and a versatile interior layout that can take a family in comfort. The construction is up to Grand Banks' usual high standards, and the golden Burmese teak interior is warm and welcoming.
This boat is still in the hands of its original owner, who has made many upgrades over the years, with perhaps the most important being the replacement of the original engines with a pair of 300HP Cummins 6BTA turbo diesels. The hull was stripped, given an expoxy barrier coat, and then redone in a high-gloss powder blue LP enamel that contrasts nicely with the high-gloss white on the superstructure, so this vessel has plenty of life left in it.
The owner has kept records of all the work done, along with surveys that have been conducted over the years, so the history is well documented.
Now he has bought a larger vessel, so this one must be passed on to a new home.
