    have no blue prints, but float has two way scuppers and
    a jetski to void the float ...some permanent ballast fwd in the
    float, so high seas dont put so much bow ing into the float
    less twisting on the two cross beams. ..... centerboards on rihgt
    are 4 foot wide ... one ton chain hoists are all sync d by a size
    35 motor bike chain and 71 tooth sprockets ....... masts are lowered
    with more sim chain hoists ... mast bolts to a rotator, below deck
    32 inch cable wheel with 8 cables entering / leaving , sync
    the 5 masts ... free standing masts turn horiz at top ,
    halyard aft puts 300 pounds on sail which has seat belt sewn
    into leach .... halyard can be attached to mid leach and pulled
    to wx to tighten the aft of sail , for close reaching ......Honda DOHC 4 cyl get twice the
    economy , over ANY diesel. lowering the C.R. can up economy
    more ... 5500 watt power plants *2 are in line on ea honda ..11000
    watts of 3ph .

    .. i was a computer type long ago, im 70
    now. I have all the best . Olimex A20 dual core ..
    but they are still in the box . no time to
    power them up find C.A.D. s.w. for A.R.M. mcu.
    im so far behind .... PACTOR and packet modems
    for comm . and my short term memory
    is GONE , so all day long i design boat and radio
    and modems and rewire the high freq welders ,
    they designed in , a full bridge of four transistors
    which are easy to pop, so i rewire welder with
    one sided transistors, impossible to burn , a simple
    lm339 and a vdc ref switch off the current far below saturation
    ultra safe ckt. ......... working on a hydraulic forging
    hammer to fast bend and curve the inside rings and formers ...3/16 by 2 inch
    is hammered on edge to curve it and thins it at once . tack weld with super mig put tension on hull with chain hoists finish welding that section.

    ...100 important projects ... a steal, on 7215 angular contact
    bearings for my super lathe, it has a 2.85 inch thru hole, its to
    make boats drive shafts, and mast rotators, where i will need
    a diy huge bearing , 4.75 inch diameter, lower bearing is a simple
    trailer axle bearing, only lower bearing takes load
    upper bearing passes all its load to masts, it bolts to ... this work
    requires a big stock of D.O.M. tube . its fast to
    figure tube fits into bigger tube, and some boat
    stuff is 6207-2rs bearings, which slide on dom 1.375 tube
    with one mil fit. ! lucky .. no machinging! no spline cutting , i drill
    between the nested tubes, then pin them with drill rod.
    if pins get loose, use a bigger drill rod pin.
    long term memory is o.k. , im making PACTOR and packet modems
    so i can work then go look at computer to see if i get new contacts from other
    boat builders. Must use TCP IP on modems, cause WIFI down
    to 440 packet dn to PACTOR can speak same protocol ..
    doing uhf high gain antennas and low band antennas,
    Butternut hf9v is a great learning tool, but you can diy fast
    and easy .. boat radios below 30 mhz are a big compromise and
    and coax losses are lo, so SWR is pushed back to antenna with a
    simple tuner, at radio, without loss.
