ZER Keel The ZERO Keel was developed to address what we at Kraken Yachts believe to be a fundamental flaw in the construction of modern cruising yachts the use of a separate boltedon ballast keel All Kraken Yachts are designed with an integrated keel with zero bolts and zero chance of being detached from the hull A lead bulb ballast design provides a low centre of gravity and a sleek hydrodynamic shape to enhance performance The leading edge and the bottom of the keel moulding are further strengthened with an extensive external multiaxial laminate incorporating Kevlar reinforcement This revolutionary design not only protects from floating debris it also allows each yacht to achieve improved stability and hydrodynamic performance
