Peace IV - ''As you can see from her pic, the gaff schooner catamaran Peace IV is not your typical schooner and is in a class by herself. Built by her owners of marine plywood, fiberglass, and West System epoxy in a rented barn on a pig farm near Bath, Britain, she is a James Wharram Tiki 46 prototype. Launched in Bristol, England in 2003'' The owners live aboard. -- Scott Vernon Plowville Pa _/)__/)_/)_ "Jeff" wrote in message . .. DSK wrote: Scotty wrote: Ever seen one? Click this pic to full size and you'll see one. http://good-times.webshots.com/photo...0093894541gYua UA Very cool photo. If those modern fiberglass things weren't in the way, this could be a pic of 200 years ago. The catamaran appears to be like a Wharram design, they often have sprit and/or gaff rigs. Did you get a closer shot of it? Yes, that definitely looks like a Wharram http://www.woodenboatvb.com/vbulleti...howthread.php? t=55904 http://www.far-away.net/charter_yach.../wharram52.htm |
