And, a standard slip looks like it would be the only place for it. Where's the MAST?! It can't be that stick held up with lawn furniture sticking out the front, can it? If that's the mast....Where's the BOOM?! Can you imaging zooming along at 10 knots having to go out in the waves to tend sail standing on a 2X4 between two hulls with the ocean whizzing by UNDER YOUR FEET just waiting for you to slip? Will your head hit the back crossbeam if you do? Geez....maybe it has a trampoline... Was looking at the hull arrangement and function of spreading the hulls. Passed it on to Roger because, with his background, I thought it would interest him. No more than that Larry. I'd think/hope/imagine there is a stick and boom. Can't imagine the engineering and building to the point they are at without planning for the rest of the boat. The pole off the front looks to be for rigging the foresail. A tramp would last longer and not foul the hull spreading mechanism if removed before folding the hulls. Merlin |
