A polyethylene boat with an innovative form and air step technology.
Hydra 530 is the first rotationally molded polyethylene monohull boat with a three-layer sandwich construction that provides for high impact and corrosion resistance, UV stability, low maintenance, and long lifespan. The innovative step in the underwater hull allows the boat to glide faster, reducing its fuel consumption (or extending the distance travelled in case of electric motors), while kiss-off ribs enhance structural stiffness and stability. The boat offers space for up to ten people and reaches 45 knots with engines up to 100 hp. Lighter than other composite materials, the boat is also fully recyclable.
