Pauger Carbon Composites designed and built the high performance 50 foot catamaran “Fifty-Fifty” just in time for the prestigious long-distance sailing regatta “Blue Ribbon” on the lake Balaton.
The efforts of the design team and the sailing crew paid off double: not only did the team win this biggest in-shore sailing regatta; they also broke the long-standing speed record by completing the 150 km race course in just 10 hours and 13 minutes. With wind speeds of 10 knots the boat achieved speeds of 24 knots!
Dénes Paulovits, founder and manager of Pauger is extremely proud of this success: “We're very satisfied with the new AIREX T92 SealX as its extremely low resin uptake made it the lightest core material for our application”.
With its trademarked products AIREX and BALTEK, 3A Composites Core Materials is a world-wide group of leading manufacturers of core materials. The materials are employed in applications where minimal weight and maximum strength is required.
