WING CRRCS − TOP OF THEIR CLASS
Seven Key Reasons to Run One
#1 Polyurethane vs. hypalon. A polyester scrim coated with Polyurethane not only gives the Wing CRRC superior
tear, puncture, and abrasion resistance compared to hypalon (CSM) and PVC, the 1680 denier thread count adds
stiffness as well.
Consequently, an
inflated Wing is
more rigid yet
lighter than boats
made with lesser
materials. A
lighter, more rigid
boat is a faster,
more
maneuverable,
more efficient boat
to run.
#2 Thermo-
welded vs. glued
seams. Thermo-
welding bonds two
pieces of coated
fabric together as if
they were one.
Molecularly fused
using heat (not
adhesives as with
hypalon), welded
seams are far more
reliable than glued
seams. Expect a
greatly extended
service life and a
much longer shelf life for boats in long-term storage with welded seams over glued seams.
#3 FRP Composite transom and floorboards vs. plywood/ aluminum. FRP composite is nonabsorbent so it won’t
rot or decay. It is lighter than wood or aluminum and has a superior strength to weight ratio.
