    Splinter

    Sorry I should have quoted. This is what PAR said upthread

    It is a reference to a design, but with a name like that is quite difficult to search.

    These are my updated plans.

    I've used hard chine hull to have more stability during the ''coast''.

    My purpose is to increase volume near the bow to avoid the swamp during the reaching by Gennaker.

    Other optimization is to flatten the bottom of the frames near the stern .

    Loa 4600 mm
    Beam 1350 mm
    Displacement around 250 kg
    Immersion 69,7 mm

    This is my last render of a soft chine but i think that i'll not use.

    What do you think?

    Thanks a lot.

    Bye
