BELZONA MARINE · 11 12 · WWW.BELZONAMARINE.COM Intelligence · The Performance Principle BELZONA MARINE · 13 Answers 14 · WWW.BELZONAMARINE.COM Answers · What You Need To Know Don’t let a few unanswered questions keep you from your dream boat. How do the patented Easy Open Sliding Doors work? Does water come into the boat from under the Easy Open Sliding Doors? The patented Belzona Marine Easy Open Sliding Doors work using a set of stainless steel trolleys and tracks. Beveled trolleys which contain two bearings each are mounted to the boat while tracks are mounted to the bottoms of the doors. Once installation is finished the door’s trolley and track systems marry seamlessly. Since the doors are so easy to open and close manually, Belzona Marine chose to not mechanize the Easy Open Sliding Door system eliminating the need for extra parts that may require repair or substitution in the future. Each door comes standard with a stopping mechanism preventing the doors from sliding back past a certain point. In the closed position, each door is secured with two half inch tapered alignment pins, as well as a locking apparatus. In both the open and closed positions the doors are secured with two heavy duty spring loaded barrel bolts. Water rarely comes into the boat from under the Easy Open Sliding doors, even in beam seas. If you have ever had the chance to look at a Belzona Marine boat you will notice that we do not install gaskets underneath the doors. That’s because they are not needed. In addition to the water line being 12 inches below the bottom of the doors, the spray rail that runs along the side of the boat effectively deter water from entering. were calculated specifically to support the hull with its missing portions. The stringer systems are built from the bottom of the hull to the height of the deck, and run from the stern to the bow. They are 5.5 inches wide and at least 24 inches tall depending on the cross section of the hull. The way the boat was designed, the boat’s stringer system and its lamination schedule all add up to the Belzona’s surprising rigidity, stability, and strength. Why is the windshield of the Belzona 327 leaning forward? Do the doors affect hull strength and stability? Simply put, no, the Easy Open Sliding doors do not affect the hull’s strength and stability. The hull was not built and then cut to allow the spaces for the doors. Our entire line of Belzona Marine boats were engineered from the ground up with the doors in mind. The stringer systems inside the hull Military and work boats have forward facing windshields for a reason. It’s functional. The forward facing windshield on the Belzona Marine 325 Center Console cuts down on glare, and sheds water from rain quickly without the use of windshield wipers, eliminating yet another part that can break. As you stand behind the windshield, you are given a wide, clear field of vision with plenty BELZONA MARINE · 15 of room and air flow making it the perfect boat to enjoy during the hot, fun filled days of summer. How stable is the hard top without an aluminum frame? Belzona has engineered our hard top support system with a composite post aft and a composite windshield frame forward. The hardtop is mounted, eventually becoming a uni-body structure, on these frames with a high tech fusing agent called methacrylate, thus eliminating screws, nuts, bolts and welds that can loosen or crack. By removing the aluminum frame, we have eradicated visual obstructions allowing 360 degree views from the helm and companion seats. What is quick drain technology, and how does it set Belzona’s safety standards apart from our competition? The American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) have established standards for modern boat cockpit drainage systems. Each boat on the water today has to meet specific drainage 16 · WWW.BELZONAMARINE.COM requirements based on the amount of water inside the cockpit, and the overall size of the boat. Customarily boats use scuppers installed in the transom to drain water from inside the cockpit. Due to restrictions in their size, scuppers can also restrict water from flowing as freely as needed to successfully drain a boat. That’s where Belzona’s Quick Drain Technology comes into play. Because our transom is mounted onto pylons, water can evacuate through our freeing ports as quickly as it comes into the boat, eliminating the need for traditional scuppers. Why do we use saddle tanks? Instead of placing the fuel tanks fore and aft of the boat’s centerline, Belzona Marine decided to break with tradition and instead install saddle tanks: fuel tanks installed port and starboard. This clears the center bilge compartment allowing it to be used for machinery, rigging, electrical, and additional mechanical operating componentry. Since fuel is not consumed evenly from each tank in the fore and aft positions, weight and trim need to be constantly monitored and adjusted to counteract the weight loss. Because of the equal balance of weight from the port and starboard side saddle fuel tanks, the Belzona Marine 325 Center Console is very steady, and requires minimal trim changes as fuel is used. What is different about our cabin on the 327 Walk Around? The days of crouching, bending and crawling into a head compartment through a small side or forward door are over. You can enter the head of the Belzona Marine 325 Center Console through a walk in sliding door at the companion seat area. Two steps down and you are into a head with over 6 feet of standing room, and 16 square feet of walking room. Wood and Corian® accents also warm the head, and can be customized to match your hull and upholstery colors.
