Revolutionary Boat Hull Design for Sale
Why would anyone want to spend $22.5M on a design that had its 'prior-
art' done in the 1890s. Tunnel-hulls have been around for over a century .... sailing scows! So, this design is going to have HARD TIME |

It's probably the fastest boat in the world, y'know... The A-Scow was probably the fastest sailboat for probably over 80 years .... still a 'screamer' but not a 'tunnel-hull' like the M-20 / !-20 Scow. If you want fast, get an International Moth 'foiler'. ;-o |

If you want fast, get an International Moth 'foiler'. ;-o Having left port with A-scows in preparation for individual races -- we were in Lasers -- I can imagine that they are the boats to beat. DANGED, they move well in almost nothing and stay upright nicely in real wind with lots of crew as mobile ballast! BUT! this is rec.boats.CRUISING, and such racing configurations have slight relevance. Truth be told, our boat would benefit greatly from such a discussion as we are fast cruisers, but let's keep it real for this group. -- Jere Lull Tanzer 28 #4 out of Tolchester, MD Xan's pages: http://web.mac.com/jerelull/iWeb/Xan/ Our BVI trips & tips: http://homepage.mac.com/jerelull/BVI/ |

Not only that, but it also has en extremely small (pinpoint) turning radius and can make turns at full speed without reducing acceleration. Imagine the envy of your round-the-buoys chums when you dont slow down at all ;-) |

So, this design is going to have HARD TIMEe Ah yes, sailing scows. The fastest monohulls they ever made. An A scow, 38', will go at least 25 MPH, and there are other smaller ones, 28', 20', 16'. The bottom is absolutely flat, but they are always sailed heeled enough that only about half is in the water . There is a retractable 'centerboard' on each side and you use only one of them at a time. When well heeled over, it is possible to stand on an out of water bilgeboard. The ultimate daysailer and almost as far as you can get from a cruiser and still have a hull. And they have indeed been arround for a century. Really cool boats. Ocean sailors seldom have that good stiff wind with tiny waves. Most lakes sailors don't own an anchor. It is very common to capsize and strike the bottom with the mast. Nobody ever broke one that I know of, but you don't get the waves you have on the ocean. As for the original question Re 22 $mil. Back when battleships were worth something, I am sure we would have licenced the Iowa for a hell of a lot less than that, to, say, the British. Casady |
