What is a MiniCup?
Someone asked what is a MiniCup. It is a homebuilt sailboat sorta like
a Sunfish on Steroids. The plans are available for free from the Stephenson Projects page or from the Back Yard Yacht Builders page. I built two so my kids could sail them. I had so much fun building them that I am now looking for a much bigger project to build. I am on my 4th experimental version of sails and have just about got them right. Unfortunately, summer around here (N. FL) is lousy sailing. |

So you disagree with *my* definition of a minicup? |

With use, the luan material has really suffered so I have mostly
covered the boats with epoxy and glass now. It simply took me some time to learn how to do the glass. I really want a project in which I can use my hands. Over the years, all the hands-on stuff at work has been delegated to people who are experts at such so I just push buttons now and I just want to make something on my own. I have considered two options, either a Tollman Skiff (20') or a 32 Corsair Tri. Although I lust after that tri, I know the Tollman Skiff is far more practical. |
