That needs work. I had a careful look but it'd need to be a fair bit cheaper than 30k. Apparently it might go in a 40' container but I'd scrap...
A 12m Harry requires less $ because the other hull is shorter. The trouble is the short hull is the accommodation. You get 30' cost and...
Ian Farrier spec'd uni over strip for his tris. I'm not overly concerned at the outside weights but I'd expect the same inside, and probably less...
FWIW, and given it's my opinion it's not worth much... The cat dory hulls are narrow so should be less of a problem, but RW has a whole range of...
Many years ago the TT enthusiasts had a CD with the 680 and 720 plans on them available for owners to help with maintenance. No one seemed...
How much does it cost each time ? I would build the trailer in glass not steel. If the distance is small a 2T trailer single axle with override...
My opinion is worth what you pay for it... Build a new hull from scratch. Make it longer and more headroom. Make it hirondell size. Use your rig...
If you have a look at the old site where that page can still be seen: Sailing Catamarans - Review of 2009...
Thank you very much. I can not help but be fascinated by them. I did not know rhea was a development of meander. It makes a lot of things make...
Imagine strip planking a 40' catamaran. The time! If those boats were redone for multi chine foam or ply like vardo/romany/saturn they could be...
Thank you for the information on meander. Something I have always wondered. Mr Woods had 2 40' cats, the open deck above and one with a cuddy. I...
OM: I tried to look back at the thread index yesterday. I may have missed it due to my poor sight. Have you looked at the larger, now withdrawn,...
Yeah I was an engineer too. If I were having discussion with my piers then I would prefer they speak precisely, but this isn't a work meeting....
You are being pedantic for the sake of being pedantic. His intended meaning was clear. Wouldn't it be more useful to discuss the issue rather than...
Sigh, really ? Now we are going to have an argument about flex vs flow ?
Before I replied this was a simple flat deck with a couple of benches. Now it's a full width bridgedeck cabin cruiser. As I recall those macs are...
2DPA-1 It will be interesting to see how stable it is and it's resistance to things like UV. There are already high spec materials. The 2 things...
Have you sailed one ? In my experience the condemnation of the Horstmans come either from badly modified boats or from people with no direct...
jamez: Agree 100%.
I remember people doing it years ago but couldn't point you at a specific case. Lots of small boats got built using it and I think it remains...
