An oppie is 7' 7" long (2.31m) so you'd have to lop 17" off the front, which might just muck up the rocker line...

Nothing making you go singlehanded if that bit doesnt apeall Jim.. Your lastest sketch looks surprisingly similar to one of my earlier designs but im going down a totaly different route now... Its gonna be out of the box so far it will make your average 6ft twin wire 30sqm big rigged skiff look mainstream IF it works I give the latest concept about a 49% chance of failing, 49% chance of being immense fun but uncontrolable and 2% chance of working well enough to get it round a course. That makes over 50% chance of fun so im taking a leap at it... You may still be sceptical Mike, but admit it... you'll be there in the queue to have a go when it kicks off.. Cut down oppies? nahh... cut down Cape Cod Frosties are where its at! you only have to loose about 4" instead of the 2' your loose from an oppy hull |

i dont want to be sceptical of this great idea i just dont want to die trying it out. i might wait to see what the 1st 4/5 boats do when they hit the water and if i think ill survive ill be straight down to somwhere where i can get marine grade ply.
make sure to post some pics on the site when you get these things working.

Maybe you should set a deadline and have a single event where everyone
launches their boats at once and we see what the hell happens.... Could
be the event of the year!

Its a matter of getting this sodding degree out of the way before i can find time to build a 6 footer... got the small matter of a cherub conversion to fit in somewhere too!!
I'll be on the start line with something though! |
