| X Twenty One-T Finally got pictures today and yesterday of the Hobie Miracle hull, tramps, main and rudder hydrofoils, the small foils for the ROH version. All will be posted very soon on www.monofoiler.com including pictures of the ROH illustration model and of the 14' aeroSKIFF model and two rough sketches of the X21-T done a while back and one done today. Should be moving into the new shop wihin a couple or three weeks and then progress will be made in a hurry. The mods to the Miracle hull will include changing the shape of the bow(and the stern), and adding the cockpit and structural reinforcement for the cross arms, mast step(s),daggerboard and "drum" 110° canting keel installation.The boat will be sailed both with and without the canting keel which is easily removable but the "drum" is permanent and very light. The tramps and large foils in the pictures are from the first aeroSKIFF™ and will be installed similarly to what you see in the iso sketch. I'm hoping Tony will get everything up this week.... |

| X Twenty One -T Pictures are up on www.monofoiler.com Refinements and a major update to the site over the next few weeks. These are rough sketches of what the final boat will be-two versions are shown on the site. Note the canting strut retracted under the port tramp. The strut and bulb are easily removed: http://www.monofoiler.com/images/x21/x21-1.html This is the big, unstayed rig-215sq.ft.;its the second rig the boat will use: http://www.monofoiler.com/images/x21/x21-3.html Other pictures include a small model of the aeroSKIFF™14 illustrating the horizontal modified wishbone and an early version of sliding seats. Also pictures of the"ROH" hull that illustrate the geometry that allows a displacement hull to simply be rotated to become a stepped planing hull.And the first and second sets of hydrofoils that will be used. And ,of course, the Hobie Miracle hull that will become the main floating part of this new boat with mods to the bow, stern, midsection etc.... |
