Kjell, It's good to see you are still alive and kicking. We corresponded with Kim Prentiss down in AU. Now, it seems israel is taking the...
Alik: How does that pivot keel raise/lower. Of course, send the CAD drawings if you feel like it to the 1002 person who has requested them...
Some more FORCES: "I had completed the final weight calculation to reduce wave making drag" "These loads can increase by up to 3 tonnes if shock...
Thanks a bunch. Keep the LOADS going. Maybe we can follow up with CRITERIA soon. Focus on those FORCES.... (please, no Skywalker jokes here)
Yes, this thread is dead, a bad use of the phrase, but any opportunity to beat my wife, hot damn, I will take it! Can I use my THUMBS?
Hey, no problem. The only thing that will risk my life is bad engineering and the inability to take good input. The only other risk to my life...
Maybe the more experienced can offer some insights here: I am trying to build a cumulative list of loads that apply to a free-twin masted...
masalai, No short cuts, supertankers, or power cats in my world. As for my mother, she was too late. I ALREADY built a 48 ft catamaran. The...
He has a new version coming out in a short time. Apparently, much less complicated.
Ok, its really easy to say "Yes, they can". So can I, but it does not reflect experience, just abstract math solutions to who knows what exact...
Well, that was unexpected. None of the RULES of THUMB offered were actually usable engineering guidelines. Moderator, please snub these! The...
Which tools? Which software tools are you using for these type of hull analysis? md
Starfish, even though you asked for a private message, there is no clear way to send one, so PM back at me, I have some ideas for you....
Hello fellow sailing catamaran designers. Experienced designers generally use engineering rules of thumb to guide their design. Please share...
Hey, I will be interested in paying you to answer questions via email. Does your company design catamarans?
Will that twin rig spin 360 degrees without collision on booms? Or does 360 require crew action? Where are you locating the masts? Consider...
