Composite construction is based on the assembly of fiberglass and polyester resin. There are of course several types of fiberglass as well as several resins depending on the desired objective. The gelcoat final layer used to protect the composite from external aggressions (UV, water …).
The dedicated Composite team at the Port-Fréjus Shipyard is able to carry out repairs due to shocks or the implementation of new equipment as well as manufacture complete parts. The realization of a custom-made delphinière for a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 49 is an example.
Composite Repair
The composite repair process is divided into several stages:
- Cleaning
- Sanding to regain a healthy layer,

Rigging
Isn’t it said that sails are the first engine of a sailboat? For +40 years the CNPF team of riggers has carried out more than 3,000 masting / demating of sailboats.
Refit
From the simplest improvement to the complete refit (renewal) of your sailboat or motor boat.
Paintings for boat
From the simple retouching of partial paint to the complete repainting, we can restore the brilliance of the new to all surfaces tarnished by time and UV.
