Keth is our first moth prototype, built in 2021. It is an extremely light, sustainable boat for which we focused on using as much sustainable materials as possible. In fact we built the mold using linen fiber while for hull and deck we decided to use basalt fiber, that is a mineral recyclable fiber, and a layer of recycled PET as a core for the sandwich. In foils we tried to reduce the percentage of carbon fiber by mixing it with glass fiber layers, a solution we will be using in our next foils as well.
Our hard work has been appreciated, in fact the path we pursued with this project brought us the first prize for design and innovation, manifacturing and speed test in SuMoth Challenge 2021.
