<p>A prefabricated and pre-finished panel (26) has a body (25) of a finished shaped, the body (25) having a first surface (27) which faces seaward when the panel is coupled to a super structure (14) of a marine vessel (10). The first surface (27) is in a finished seaworthy state so that when the panel (26) is coupled to the super structure (14), no further surface finishing such as sanding, filling or painting is required. Each panel (26) also comprises a coupling mechanism (29) to facilitate coupling of the panel (26) to super structure (14). Coupling mechanism (29) comprises a first edge portion (31) of the body which lies to one side of a portion of the first surface (27). The coupling mechanism (29) also comprises a second edge portion (33) of the body which lies to the same side of a portion of the first surface (27).</p> |
