Our Alumarine Vessels

This implies the models of boats we have in use at YW Diamond. There are, in fact, numerous vessel models. However, the ones we have are; Punts, Barges, Z Bow Monohulls, Monohulls, Work Boats Z bow Catamarans, Conventional catamarans.

Z Bow catamarans

Our signature vessels are the Z bow wave piercing catamarans. It is an upgrade to the conventional catamarans. It’s unique and designed in such a way to provide high-quality performance in terms of speed. The Z bow catamarans, also known as wave-piercing catamarans, are a very important aspect of the boat’s outlook. It has an entry and topsides as well as additional waterline length. All these features and more contribute to the vessel’s advancement even in negative and harsh boating conditions. 

Conventional Catamarans

Before the Z bow catamarans, the conventional catamarans were in vogue before the upgrade was introduced. A very important benefit if the catamaran is that it has distinct inherent stability. It moves at a reasonable speed that allows for stability.

Additionally, conventional catamarans are perfect for big-sized families with young kids or adults who are not exactly feet-steady. This is because the vessel does not allow for wave actions to be felt. It is way easier to move around the deck as well as within the interiors of the vessel.

Boarding and offloading of the catamaran are relatively easier than other vessels, and catamarans can do a complete turnaround. 

Z Bow Monohulls

The Z bow is easily the most discerning element of the new monohull RHIB range. The Z bow has for some time been added as an upgrade to the catamaran. And now, the same innovation is being applied to monohulls.

Generally, the Z bow is a popular feature on pilot boats in Europe. However, the Z now has started surfacing in boats in Australia. 

There is an underlying principle behind the Z bow, which is quite simple and easy to fathom. The Z bow allows the hull’s length to be stretched and finer without necessarily causing an increase in the weight or length of the vessel. The consequential end of this is that a vessel can pierce through waves instead of crashing into them. This slight difference goes a long way in helping to have a smooth and efficient ride.

Another special feature of the Monohulls aside from the Z bow is that the boat also uses CTMD’s stepped hulls. These hulls are uncommon. They function by getting the air behind the steps if they are working in a displacement mode, thus causing more efficiency.

Work Boats 

Examples of work vessels include the following;

12m Catamaran

It has specifications of 5.5m beam, shallow draft and is powered by 2 x 250/350 hp outboard. The vessel has a wheelhouse, platform access and so many other cool features.

10m Workboat Pontoon

This vessel is super strong and can be used for marine construction or suit aquaculture.
