Structural and Mechanical Upgrades and Enhancements

• "Composite Enhancement" project: Large fiberglass yachts often suffer from limited stiffness longitudinally over the length of the vessel, as well as at critical "Hard Points", such as struts, rudder posts and stabilizer attachments. Under the guidance of the Naval Architects from the Winchester Design Group, the Azimut 116' was stiffened and reinforced at each critical area under the "Composite Enhancement" project. Structure added to fiberglass stringers and hard points throughout the vessel resulted in a singularly stiff straight hull and unequaled smooth ride. In addition, proper reinforcement of the stabilizer bases (3 5I8" of Epoxy E-Glass Composite frame to frame and stringer to stringer) eliminate the "oil Can" flexing of the hull with its incumbent noise, which is commonplace with Zero Speed Stabilizers found on many composite vessels
• ELBA's "Quiet Ship" project includes upgraded "Soundown" insulation throughout the vessel, with particular attention to salon and stateroom floors, walls and overheads, with additional attention to source suppression from the machinery spaces and air handling systems throughout the vessel
• Shore power from any marina world-wide is converted and filtered by an Atlas SPA 60KW System located within the machinery  space protected from corrosive salt environment found in typical  Lazarette installations.
• Zero Speed Stabilizer performance is difficult to achieve on designs like the Azimut 116' due to a naturally rapid roll period and limited draft. To address this challenge, a custom designed "Trac" zero-speed stabilizer system, factory engineered for the Azimut 116' application with upgraded software was chosen. Elba's "Quiet Ship" project provided proper reinforcement of the stabilizer bases, eliminating the "oil can" flexing of the hull with it's incumbent noise, which is commonplace with Zero Speed Stabilizers found on many composite vessels 
• MTU 16VI2000 M91 engines, MTU's most trusted high performance engines, with a two year MTU engine warranty. 
• As sound and vibration suppression were top design priorities for the build, upgraded and custom engineered engine mounts ("Soundown") were fitted, in preference to the standard units supplied with the MTU 16V2000-M91's, as part of the ELBA "Quiet Ship" project
