I think it's a nicely shaped hull. As for the solar canopy protecting you from the drizzle : It also blocks the sun when there finaly is some....
You can mount the standard APC prop "backwards" (cut a slot for the breaking pin in the front), and when needed use the reverse direction of the...
Like kayakmarathon says: you're making a full shortcut if you would wire it as you describe. The other contributors give goood advice how to...
The picture of the outboard and propellor suggests that if you would get it on a plane, the prop will be half out of the water..... Can you lower...
Is the "breaker" a switch ? If so you might have broken both breakers in your earlier setup, and "welded" them in permanent ON-state. I looked...
I think fallguy is right ? If you switched it parallel to the pump,it creates a short cut (spark !). It should be wired something like :...
Hello Close Call, I have helped build a trimaran using the vertical foam method, and the building of the hull was (relatively) easy. The vertical...
Hi CLmanges, It will work, but would benefit from having a twisting blade (like the miragedrive) . You could see it as a propeller blade making a...
Hello Cedric, It looks to me like you are overbuilding some parts, and underbuilding others. The epoxy filet between the bottom ply and the sides...
Judging from the pictures on the website, the outer skin is rotomolded HD Polyethylene, and this (formed) skin is in one piece, folded over the...
A bit late, but you still could try heating it with a temperature controllable airgun or paintstripper (difficult because it's so hot). Usually...
PS Did you ask the designer about using mdf as hull material ? I still can not see how that can be strong enough for a boat hull (having no...
The bow tube is probably also designed as a compression strut, else the load of the forestay bridle will flex the hulls towards each other. The...
This sounds plausible if the rear foil/propeller is higher than the main foil (cannot really see from the picture). But it would also mean that...
It can be done (see my take on it here : How to Scull a Multihull | Small Trimarans https://smalltrimarans.com/blog/how-to-scull-a-multihull/),...
Hello BCowan, A way to reef a lateen rig is the "zipper reef" , an idea from Gary Dierking. The Zipper Reef...
Did you see the video in post #28 ? Does that count or does it have to be a dinghy ? I thought it is convincing and intersting (because it is so...
Sorry for the confusing video, this indeed wasn't a good choice. Here's probably a better one . [MEDIA]
Here's a video of a model wind turbine boat going directly against the wind : [MEDIA]
It might be a buzzer. I recall reading somewhere on their facebook that they do fault finding for the motor "acoustically".
