Wonderful. One HP per Metric ton of displacement sounds much better. The Fisher 25 is roughly 5 tons. Thus 5 Hp turning a decent prop slowly...
Waves hitting the (flat?) bottom should prove interesting.
Better ask the stupid questions first vs making the wrong choice :) It will have sails for sure. And it looks like I'll be investing in an OB for...

Ok,so get a boat to learn the ropes first. Makes sense Mr kerosene. Now,how would you go about sipping fuel ad still be able to make good...

Build will be quite some time from now,unless my numbers come up. I'm quite interested in a micro cruiser design. It's got to be awfully small....
Nacho, would you have any update on this?
