The hull is made of aluminium. Aluminum is strong and forgiving. Where an impact on a fiberglass hull will result in major gelcoat damage and possible cracking, an aluminum hull will probably only have a scratch or a small bend. The only concern is electrolysis. Ensure that you have proper sacrificial anodes installed. Finally, aluminium is not prone to osmosis.
The boat may be equipped with dual inboard MTU diesel engines at 1800 hp (1341 kW). Max speed is 27.0 knots.
