Unique
Composite Construction
Using
the latest technology in composites, we incorporate epoxy by infusion
through a unique vacuum bag process. Carbon fiber, Kevlar and
S-glass are used to make GlasLite floats a premier product. We
are now able to use
aramid fabrics like Kevlar because of our infusion process.
Substantially
lighter in overall weight than aluminum or composite floats of
same displacement.

| Design/Performance
 We
use a conventional proven airfoil/water foil design with updated
technology in composites.
The
total length of the keel is carbon fibre with aluminum 6061 T6
bonded skid rails.
Our
design features:
•
double fluted profile bottoms
• smooth, no rivets, very slippery on water or
in the air,
• high strength fibre cleats front and back,
• total float is corrosion free and always looks new.
