INFORMATION ABOUT PRODUCTS USED FOR DRAGONFLY
The standard maple interior, the panels are in strong laminate material and
basically needs no maintenance. The maple wooden trim is more fragile but is
varnished from the factory and only needs repair if the wood/varnish is damaged.
The optional Teak woodwork in the cabins is varnished with two-part satin
varnish. To varnish again sand with grit 180 or finer sandpaper. You can use
either one or two component varnish with satin finish.
Dragonfly is built of hand-laid, reinforced fibreglass and polyester/vinylester resin
combined with 15-20 mm PVC sandwich foam core with closed cells, which do
not absorb water. Therefore, the boat is at all times unsinkable.
For eventual repairs use ONLY products on polyester/vinylester basis. Epoxy can
be used in an emergency, but cannot be cosmetically improved later with
gelcoat.
If repairs are done where gelcoat finish is not needed or if the finish needs
painting
– epoxy resin is actually to be recommended.
Before any lamination repairs are done, the repaired area must be completely
dry.
By delivery of a new boat from Quorning Boats, the yard does not calibrate
electronic equipment.
It is the responsibility of the skipper/owner to ensure that all the electronics are
calibrated and reliable.
