A lot of my friends are musicians. We are thinking of playing music on these barges. We used to go down the river in canoes playing acoustical...
I'm not sure what the future of these boats will be. I'm thinking they will most likely spend most of their time on trailers. Most likely being...
Yellow cat, You can rest assured that there won't be any stupid people on our boats. ;) No one will be drinking alcoholic beverages either....
They will be registered as four separate boats. I don't foresee a problem with the law. We will only be using these boats on a very small...
I have been toying with different ideas of how to anchor them together. I want something that is quick and easy to attach and detach, but as you...
Just thought I'd update with some crude drawings I've been working on. Here's drawing of the basic hull construction: [IMG] Adding cross...
Ok, here we go. I have five upright ribs or joists running the length of the barge. There's probably a better boating term for these?...
I've made major progress in learning how to use Delftship today. The Freeship manual has been quite helpful. I've learned how to control...

Where do I find the Loading Conditions menu? I've looked everywhere, I don't see it. I tried doing a search for it in the help dialog box, and...
Yes, I understand. I wasn't planning on mixing it randomly. Unfortunatley I don't have a good drawing that shows how I plan on building this but...
That's a really nice design. It looks like it will slip right through the water. Best wishes on your project. Oh, yeah, I looked at your...
The only ones I've found so far are these: Delftship support videos They haven't been much help for me. While I'm in this thread can I...
That's a beautiful boat. I LOVE IT. That my style in terms of artistic appeal. It's almost like something out of a fairytale. How long is...
The plywood I was looking at for $50 a sheet is only 4 mm thick. Just over 1/8 inch. It would be extremely easy to bend. Especially for my...
