Poids lège

Le poids lège est proche de la définition de masse lège définie par la norme ISO 8666.

C’est le poids du bateau prêt à naviguer avec un armement minimum comprenant la voilure de base, le moteur de puissance moyenne recommandée, une ligne de mouillage et quelques amarres. S’il y a un ballast liquide, il est vide.

Pour les voile-aviron, il n’y a pas de poids moteur mais le poids des avirons. S’il y a plusieurs versions de gréement, je prend la plus simple.

Le poids est susceptible de varier d’un bateau à l’autre en fonction du choix des essences de bois et des équipements choisis.

Il est courant que le poids indiqué sur les documentations d’autres architectes ou chantiers, ou publiés dans la presse, ne soit que celui de la coque seule et parfois même fortement sous estimé. Aussi je vous invite à faire preuve de discernement lors de la comparaison de mes bateaux avec d’autres.

Lire avant de passer commande

Le dossier d’évaluation est un extrait du plan pour en savoir plus avant achat. Donc inutile d’acheter plan et dossier d’évaluation.

Le plan, ou dossier de construction, est le document de base pour construire le bateau. Il comporte dessins, instructions de montage, photos, listes de matériaux et fournitures, etc… Il donne droit à une assistance par email ou téléphone. Le plan doit être acheté pour construire le bateau.

Ce bateau ne peut être construit qu’avec un kit de contreplaqué en découpe numérique ou les tracés vraie grandeur. L’un ou l’autre doivent être acheté en complément du plan. Compte tenu du nombre important de panneaux de contreplaqué, le kit est vivement conseillé.

Vous pouvez aussi commander des fichiers de découpe numérique pour faire découper le kit par une entreprise de votre choix.

Pour commander un kit, s’adresser à l’un de mes partenaires.

Les frais postaux et la TVA, si elle s’applique, sont inclus dans les prix affichés.
