Hi

When you ask 15 to 20 knots I don\t think the tradisional trawler types
are the best choice , to profit from new technikes so you are not stuck
with a difficult construction also ask more modern designs , check this
one that is projected with actural ease of building in mind, no
difficult edges not the hundreds of small finish issues --- emagine a
tradisional emty hull where you still must in the tradisional way , fit
deck and structures ,deadrooms and lockers and compare it with this
smooth design where every surface are finished where the trouble
closing the hull are done with allready when the inner panels are fit,
where adding structure are compleatly different than fitting onto a
tradisional deck and hull , ---- well if you never build a boat it is
maby difficult to emagine that second thought in the design process
realy matter, but if you did you know how much it mean that there are
not the trouble "closing" the hull, that the boat is ready for an
outboard when the hull inner and outher panels are fit, compared a
tradisional open hull, where just fitting the deck , just fitting the
edges for the structure is a huge job. Check out a compleatly different
design aproach ;
