HULL STRUCTURE
Hull structure made of composite material that includes a hull with high thickness “single skin” monocoque plating without reinforcements and an internal stiffening structure (1) formed by a deck (2), two opposing transverse bulkheads (3) and more cradle-shaped load-bearing elements (5) to support components or machinery intended to be housed on board said hull structure. Advantageously, the above-mentioned cradle-shaped load-bearing elements (5) are supported at the respective internal portions of said opposite transverse bulkheads (3) only at their opposite head ends (5b).

ASSEMBLY FOR CONNECTING A NON-STRUCTURAL BULKHEAD TO THE STRUCTURE OF A SHIP, AND METHOD FOR THE INSTALLATION THEREOF
A floating connection assembly of a bulkhead to at least one element of constraint includes a projection integral to the element of constraint and at least one first longitudinal sealing bead. At least one projecting element protrudes from the bulkhead. The assembly has at least a second flexible seal and at least one closure plate, arranged in such a way that the bulkhead and the element of constraint are separated along an edge of the bulkhead. The one first longitudinal sealing bead is interposed between the bulkhead and the projection, on which is present at least one through hole through which passes the projecting element, integral with a respective closure plate, so that the bulkhead remains cantilevered on the protrusion, avoiding a different support, and so that the projecting element is free to oscillate inside the hole.

STRINGER AND SYSTEM FOR MOUNTING EQUIPMENT TO A VESSEL'S HULL
A system for mounting equipment to a vessel's hull is disclosed. The system comprises a first stringer and a second stringer, where each stringer is attachable to the inside of the vessel's hull. The system also includes a layer of adhesive attaching both stringers to the inside of the vessels hull. Both stringers have a top cap for attaching equipment. Additionally, each stringer has a first vertical side wall connected to a first end of the top cap, a second vertical side wall connected to a second end of the top cap, and two flanged portions. A first flanged portion connects to a lower end of the first vertical side wall, and a second flanged portion connects to a lower end of the second vertical side wall. The system has an open side portion at the bottom end of both stringers.

PERSONAL WATERCRAFT
A hybrid personal watercraft combines features of pontoon boats and deck boats, in a cost-effective and versatile package. The watercraft includes port and starboard sponsons which combine a pair of outboard flotation cavities. A space below the deck and above the hull bottom creates at least one, and potentially up to three additional flotation cavities, which may also be used as storage areas accessible by an access door in the bow of the watercraft and/or a set of hatches in the deck. The watercraft may be efficiently produced assembled from polymer materials, such as thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO).
Load-bearing frame structure for maritime vehicles
A load-bearing frame structure for a maritime vehicle includes two support plates, a deck plate structure, a front bulkhead structure, and a back bulkhead structure. Each of the support plates has a front edge, a back edge, a top edge, and a bottom edge. The support plates can be angled relative to each other and connected to each other at the top edges thereof forming an inverted V-shape. The support plates can alternately be parallel to each other in a vertical orientation. The support plates each have one or more cut-out sections. The deck plate structure connects the two support plates proximate the bottom edges of the support plates. The front bulkhead structure connects the front edges of the support plates, and the back bulkhead structure connects the back edges of the support plates.
