Low temperature curing epoxy prepreg sandwich construction Diab cores offer the highest strength-per-weight ratio for all marine applications and with our HM foam, builders can achieve maximum performance and cost-efficiency as well as being confident their craft can handle the toughest ocean conditions,” said Lars-Magnus Efraimsson, Sales Manager MEA, Diab. “For performance marine craft, especially a powerboat with such a high top speed as the Mayla, we recommend Divinycell HM core. Divinycell HM also provides a high operating temperature, thus reducing the risk of print through on dark hulls and opening up a full spectrum of hull colour possibilities. High compressive properties also provide excellent resistance to denting and skin wrinkling when thin carbon fibre skins are used. As a result, Divinycell HM is an extremely tough product, capable of absorbing the high dynamic impacts and slamming loads generated by modern high speed craft. Its elongation exceeds the requirements of ISO 12215, GL and ABS rules, allowing engineers to create lighter structures without compromising strength or safety. It combines a very high shear strength with an outstanding shear elongation. Earlier projects - Diab and Nova Mare worked together on Nova’s first build, the lightweight all-carbon Aeolos P30 sailing yacht launched earlier in 2022 and now in series production – had built significant confidence in the Diab range and Divinycell HM was a clear choice.ĭivinycell HM is a high-performance structural core designed specifically for fast marine hulls such as the Mayla 44, where higher toughness is required. With outright weight reduction a priority, Mayla, Nova and the project’s structural engineers sought a lightweight yet reliable core material tough enough to manage the high loads generated by the Mayla’s impressive top speed. The Mayla has been designed around the patented Petestep® hull technology, which uses uniquely shaped deflectors to push water downwards and to the stern of the yacht, generating energy savings of up to 35% as well as reducing slamming and increasing passenger comfort.Įven with the novel hull design, the Mayla 44’s 70 knot plus top speed requires an extremely lightweight construction, and the decision to build a completely carbon fibre full-sandwich composite structure was taken very early in the project design cycle. Conceived by a pair of passionate sailors aiming to create a seriously fast motor yacht unlike anything else afloat, the radical 44 footer blends classic styling elements with a state-of-the-art composite construction and electric drivetrain. The Mayla 44 promises to create quite a stir when the first hull is launched early next year. The Mayla 44, an ultra-high performance electric power boat currently in build at Nova Mare, is the latest Diab marine project with Nova in Dubai. Mayla Yacht shares Fox’s passion for lightweight construction and is clear that weight reduction is the key factor in building more sustainable yachts. This approach is just as applicable today, with naval architects and owners striving to create more efficient more sustainable craft. “Weight is only good in a steamroller,” – was a simple yet remarkably topical quote from Uffa Fox (1898-1972), the renowned designer of some of the first fully planing sailing dinghies. The arrangements above will apply until further notice.Diab Divinycell HM foam powers new electric Mayla 44 - The radical 44 footer is lighter and faster than ever The Fox’s Chandlery store is now temporarily closed but we remain open Online , and for Telephone Orders from Monday to Friday 09.00-17.30.
