Now this is getting interesting. I'm sitting here learning. The story with the lines is that they do all exist but Tony Mason's heirs are...
I do aim to, ultimately. Given that the client (a friend of mine) specifically asked for a hull close to the Clipper, though, I wanted to find out...
Yes, I'm aware of that. There have been versions of that hull in 36ft length, for example, and I'm sure a lot of similar designs exist - the...
My current issue is that I have neither access to lines plans nor to any of the boats built, thus no measurements I can take. That way I can't say...
I am currently looking to recreate a hull similar to the Mason Clipper, built by Mason Marine in NZ a few years ago. While I will try my best at...
Good point to keep in mind at least! Difference here, though, is the lack of center of efforts from mast/sails. Cabin and hull sides are the only...
It's luckily not my place to have to decide on the value or ego behind this project, but I am happy to be challenged with this unique set of...
I'll wager that England simply has the strongest "recreational" rowing tradition in modern history, and the development on the English rivers has...

First off, thank you so much for your comment. I'm always open to hear of smarter ways, but I assume you'd point towards rowing and/or pedal...
This exactly. Not an afterthought, I'm sure. Again, easy to see why the Safehaven design was rejected. The Watercat 1500 Patrol III was designed...
Nothing in this is too crazy at all, the launch systems are obviously dictated by the given conditions in the location of deployment. The German...
Hi daiquiri, The steering part is the easiest of 'em all! On the Unlimited class SUP boards (longer than in races) there often are toe/foot...
John, My notification e-mail also displayed this text: This is very insightful! Thank you for this. Will keep it in mind as a guideline.
That's exactly that, plus it's very much in the way anywhere else on that boat, as is the case in my design as well.
Hello Petros, and thank you for your answer. My thinking regarding the daggerboard was that, being on the open ocean, it will be subject to...
Hello everyone, After lurking and reading for the past years I finally decided to get a username and ask a few questions. As to not inhibit...
