CABO HORN

NEW ROUND BILGE STEEL HULL BUILT BY BENTINI José Oscar Bentini, the wizard of metallic building
in Brasil, just completed the first steel round bilge hull of a Cape
Horn 40 class yacht.Nothing compares to a round bilge in aesthetics
and low resistance. Besides with the worsening of meteorological conditions
caused by the so called Greenhouse Effect, cruisers require each time
more that their boats be the strongest possible and regarding this requirement,
steel construction is “hors concours”. José Oscar
Bentini’s client, Walter Barbosa is a computer scientist and he
intends to use his future boat as a residence, office and in the long
run, as a cruising yacht. To Walter Barbosa and his family, we wish
their new boat to be the perfect upgrade from his former sailing boat,
the Samoa 29 Áquila, with which he accomplished so many gratifying
long distance cruises. To José Oscar we send our compliments.
