Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

It even has a shadow causing mast above the solar panels for a GPS antenna.
I guess the owner must think the GPS gets better reception being closer to the satellites!

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

For about a nanosecond I thought, "WOW ! A Wharram with dagger boards, and FOUR of them ! Is it a foiler ?


In the second nanosecond, I realized they were just open hatches. :redface:

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

I'm pretty sure that's the boat that was tied up at Port Ludlow for several years, slowly rotting away.
I remember wishing I could find out who owned it to see if they'd sell as it obviously wasn't...

Re: 48' cat

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

They even compare it to a tank.
I'll bet it sails like one as well.
Everywhere I look in those photos, I see unneeded extra weight !

Re: Cheap Multis and Projects

I knew some people with one in Mexico in the '90's.
It was a sweet boat. Never sailed on it, but was impressed with the way it handled.
