Categories Non classéMEET CHARLÉLIE, A UNIQUE ROLE IN MAKING TUBES FOR IGUANA RIBS Post author By Clémence Thellier Post date 29 April 2024 TELL US MORE ABOUT YOURSELF About my studies, I completed a baccalaureate technician carpenter fitter which subsequently allowed me to obtain a CAP in cabinetmaking to finish with a certificate in crafts. To validate this diploma, I had to complete an internship and that is how I arrived at Iguana. I had already done internships before and it was during my second year of certification that I arrived here. I arrived at Iguana Yachts in 2019. I subsequently obtained a promise of employment which was reassuring for me in order to be able to find stability. My first mission was in the field of carpentry for Iguana cabins. The opportunity to start working in tubes arose when the launch of the Iguana X100 began, so it was necessary to start producing tubes to build the boats. A position was therefore to be filled to fulfill these missions and I was the person who wanted to take the niche by learning the basics. Regarding the tube, there are several steps such as preparing the patches as well as gluing them. There is also a quality role to ensure that the tube holds but is also waterproof of course to withstand water at sea and climatic conditions. I immediately got along very well with the team, which was an important point for me to feel good about my work.WHAT ARE YOUR MISSIONS AT IGUANA?As stated above, I came as a carpenter, however I am currently carrying out missions related to tubes. The vessels concerned are therefore the X100, X100 White Edition, and the Knight. I had already worked with neoprene which was positive because I already knew one of the basic materials. I was also satisfied to take this role because it gave me an additional skill in my knowledge. The aesthetic aspect immediately attracted me to the tubes but especially the technical side with meticulous gestures which are close to what I knew from my experience in carpentry. HOW DO YOU INSTALL THE TUBE ON THE RIB'S?The process for tubes at Iguana is as follows: we receive a tube with a time-saving manufacturing base. We position the tube on the boat to trace the areas to be sanded to prepare certain areas in particular for gluing this tube. Afterward, I trace the patches and then glue the cuffs on them so that they are ready. I then apply my patches to my tube. You should know that at this moment the tube is still on the ground because all the preparations must be perfect before being able to complete the bonding on the boat. Once everything is validated (patches and cuffs), I glue the tube to the boat. You might think that my mission is complete after this step but I still have to make all the connections between the tube with the bridge, the console, and the bench that we call the lips. Finally, I do the fender part to finalize the turn of the tube. This step is last because the tube can tend to twist during gluing, so I take no risk that the fender will twist too. Of course, there is also cleaning for maximum finishes. To carry out all of these missions I will need approximately 1 week depending on the people who will help me but also the drying time to take into account the color of the tube. On a black tube, the fender will be more complicated to clean than a fender on a gray tube. Some missions were more challenging, for example, we had a boat with tubes that could inflate and deflate so that it could be put into a garage. The most different step was adding valves inside and I didn’t know how to do it at the time. So I had to learn and that was the biggest difficulty to overcome. To me, Iguana can be summed up in three words: team, impressive, and pride. The team aspect is very important to me as we spend all our days working together. It's impressive because we never know what the result will be when we start from scratch, but we always manage to create something amazing. Lastly, I feel proud of what we accomplished. Even though we always strive to do better, it's still astonishing to see what we can create. Interested in joining the team? Check out our latest positions. JOIN THE TEAM
Categories Non classéIGUANA YACHTS STEPS INTO A NEW ERA WITH ELECTRIC BOATS Post author By Clémence Thellier Post date 29 April 2024 Iguana Yachts goes one step further with an innovation that is both groundbreaking and sustainable. With a 10-year tried and tested technology, Iguana Yachts is ready for another challenge and to lead the way with sustainable and innovative solutions. For the first time in the maritime industry, a fully electric amphibious Bow Rider will see the light of day in the Iguana Yachts shipyard. Here is the very first teaser about this model as well as the first characteristics of the boat to better understand its creation. ENQUIRE When I launched Iguana Yachts, 15 years ago, I thought that there were no reasons for boats not to be able to be launched or retrieved on their own. This has been an incredible challenge but we dealt with it successfully. In the same way, twenty years ago skepticism about electric mobility was dominant in the car industry and finally it is happening at scale today in the world. Similarly, this new challenge will hit the nautical industry and we, Iguana Yachts, want to be a key player in this transformation. Our new Bow Rider is the first step in the direction of carbon free motor boats and I thank our client, who gave us the opportunity to design and deliver a full electric Iguana (Land and Sea) which will be used on a lake in East Europe where thermic engines are not anymore accepted. This boat is the fruit of the pioneering vision of our founder, Antoine Brugidou, who for many years has worked to offer our customers a completely carbon-free solution and with multidisciplinary skills of our teams. In addition to the integration of an electrical system, all of the company's technical teams (composites, mechanics, naval architecture, supply chain and production) worked together to offer this new model. Iguana's DNA is to offer boat enthusiasts unique technological solutions that improve their daily lives. With this boat which requires no infrastructure and which emits no CO2, I believe that we have succeeded in our challenge of making the most sustainable boat in the world. IGUANA BOW RIDER THE GROUND BREACKING EVOY ELECTRIC TECHNOLOGIESThe Iguana Bow Rider Electric will be equipped with the silence Outboard Evoy Storm motor of 300 Horse Power. The Storm is more than a powerful motor, it’s a plug-and-play powertrain solution and a brilliant solution from our Norwegian colleagues. Meet the most powerful electric outboard motor on the market. The Storm is a turnkey motor system that delivers 300 continuous horsepower. With instant torque, bringing your boat to planning speed is quick and effortless. Not only is the motor incredibly responsive, it showcases superior maneuverability. Built to last, the robust design can tackle fresh and saltwater. The system comes with the battery pack of your choice, fast charging options, and a touchscreen. EVOY This vessel is a first in decarbonization for amphibious boats in order to constantly evolve as the market as well as customer demand.THE PERFECT MODEL FOR LAKESWith this new electric technology combined with the Iguana Bow Rider, lakes become the perfect playground in European lakes. We look forward to showing you the different stages of construction for this unique new model which will mark a milestone in the history of Iguana Yachts. Sustainability has always been part of Iguana Yachts DNA. With minimal requisites in logistics, materials, infrastructure and anti-fouling, amphibious boats are overall more environmentally friendly and last longer as they do not stay in the water all-year long. It is a natural development for Iguana Yachts to go for electric propulsion to offer the most sustainable motor-boating experience in the world. Iguana Yachts keeps up with changes in regulations and market trends and adjusts its products to cater to potential future customers. In some countries, multiple lakes can only allow by electric boats. ENQUIRE Interested about this model? Contact us. LEARN MORE
