I haven't read the 24 pages, but arrived here via checking up on the status of Anhinga conversations. I have plans dating back to one of the...
I made my KHSD amas out of 4 mm plywood, and they have held up for 30 years, they don't see a ton of use but are really tough and well shaped, and...
I have been looking for these for a long time, including somehow missing them here in searches for apparently years, most grateful for the downloads.
"I'm wondering how much reinforcement is needed for connecting the two hulls to the main cabin? I'm planning something in the 30-40 foot range."...
That has the looks of a classic, thanks for the details. This from elsewhere on the site [IMG]
I have followed multis since around 1980, and have huge respect for your record in both racing and design. Didn't realize you were now/then based...
One answer would be on speed to build that 2 round bilge SF hulls use 6 panels just like 2 3 panel flat bottom hulls. Another would be the hulls...
I vote we split out the foiler content since on the same basis as above, foils apply to monos as well, and everyone would benefit from the...
I have these two materials available in my part of the world, and I have never heard of the G-pet. The two things that would recommend it is that...
That method of construction is reasonably common in aircraft, and Chris White built his proa that way. Meaning foam blocks glassed. And of...
Jamez, do you have up close pics of that rudder, looks like an interesting installation. OK, I think I am seeing it now, there is a top bracket I...
I guess that is what is intended on my boat. I used to have a 3.5 2 stroke, and it was stolen. But the new 4 is a heavy lump. Then I read the...
Thanks for those pics! Jamez, I think that may be what Kurt had in mind. I was surprised to see when I looked into those that at least the ones...
Well you would have to know how to scantle a Newick design, but that is not overly complicated. The lines are easy to construct from the lines in...
I'm thinking outboard motor mounts. There is no normal, just a square marked 4 hp off the back of the boat which is 3/8" plywood.
I have had trouble with my various motor mounts over the years, though they are relatively simple things, so changes are no big deal. I want to...
For what purpose? For cruising. Charter. Racing? A lot of the answers for the latter including their later experiments into low resistance...
Structural differences aside what is the major way in which this is a different concept from any wingspar/sail which splits lift between a spar...
Unless there are very efficient flanges, you need tape. Sometimes you have to cut additional access points that you later patch up. Ideally, the...
If you want to buy second hand, tris, are often an order of magnitude cheaper, and it isn't because they are an order of magnitude worse. They...
