Default Heart of Gold-Nothing bad happened!


One last question, how do you know it was waves slapping against the
swim
platform (waves travelling against the wind) and not just the boat
slightly
rocking and creating slapping noise due to poor aft end design?


Because another boat was with us and our boat was moving less. Our
dinghy was moving more. A Catalina with a swim platform also "slaps."
As does my friends Tayana 48 at times.
Sorry, you failed again!

Nothing of the sort. I asked a simple question which you failed to answer.

The slap is not against the swim platform, it is against the overhang of the
hull. It is designed in, one of the tradeoffs for a fast hull design. Name
one fast hull that does not have this problem.

You need this:

It will keep you slap-happy.

I'd love to help you with the small cockpit but I haven't found a company
that makes cockpit enlargers yet.

That aft cabin will make a good storage locker.

Or you could just use one of Robs diapers.

Robs has attained Diaper Zen. The diaper has become an extension of himself.
Both are full of crap.
