Hi all. My friend bought a 34 ft racing yacht for full crew and we are planning conversion for double-handed. Firstly, we have to add an autopilot, but the rudder tube is full from the bottom to the deck. We are planning to cut the rudder tube and seal this with a gaiter from Jefa Rudder and add...
Hi,
I was wondering if it would be possible to design/draw something similar to an H20 Slingshot 222 or a Jensen V1 Racer to be built in cedar strip? I am aware of the USCA design "Tandem Ashes Quick" offered by Trevor (Ashes Stillwater Boats) but I am looking for something more "racy", if you...

Hi, I am new to boat design and really the science behind boating. I heard somewhere that on airplanes there is a certain RPM at which the propeller no longer creates thrust whether this is true or not I am not sure. If this is true I am wondering if there is some similar property on boat props...

Hi guys,
I've done a bit of round the boys racing as a general string puller and rail meat but on Multi's crew is minimal and so a certain amount of multi-skilling is required.
Some boats I've sailed on don't even have a compass or a wind vane some have systems on iPads that have tacking angles...
researching design for a really efficient flat water sup racing hull. Obviously it's going to be compromised due-to the 14' Length standard. First question comes to mind, what is the minimal Length to Beam ratio needed so wave drag isn't a major factor? Is it realistic given the limitations?
I damaged my Corsair F28R daggerboard sailing in Mexico in the Spring. Because replacements are pricey, am planning to repair it. Had a neat plan and was about to put it into action when I determined that I wasn't sure what the original foil shape was. The foil is similar to a NACA 10 foil...
Very traditional galley lay out only that everything is laminated from carbon sandwich panels with foam core. Even the ice box!. The whole bench top plate weights 3 kg. The structure is laminated to the hull to provide extra stiffness.
View of the interior without deck of the Bondi 36. All components are carbon sandwich with foam core. In the aft cabin area the water ballast tanks are visible. The rest of the interior has a traditional lay-out.
Curing of the deck bond under vacuum. The collision bow area was laminated at the same time. The collision bow was laminated over a foam core which will dent during large collisions, absorb energy and allow easy repair.
