Construction and Coatings

The Sequin 44 hull was hand laid-up utilizing foam coring above the waterline and a solid glass hull below the water line. The original hull was delivered with a gel-coat finish and has since been painted with Awlgrip. Utilizing modern build practices at the time of build along with strong adherence to the designers, Sparkman & Stephens, layup schedule the hull is exceptionally well built and proven hull.

Deck

The deck of the Aletheia is aesthetically pleasing with a very classical feel. Looking closer though you will notice that below the surface this very modern and built to last. One has to go no further than to look at the teak decks and the lack of bungs. The teak decks on, Aletheia, were replaced in 2014 and the a laminated Teak Decking System was installed that is far superior to screwed down teak decks and offer added protection for the sub decks without losing the classic proven feel of teak. Along with the new decks, all exterior wood was stripped and refinished in 2015 and the chain plates where pulled for inspection and then rebedded. Moving from bow to stern:
