Once again we are offering the wildly successful Holiday plans price discount. Matthew has had to work a bit harder at it now as robots run the shopping cart and nobody can see the card numbers. I understand it will be for all orders over $1000 and will be for 20% off as before. Party on.
Matthew here, – would have been really easy, if i had any Excel skills 😉 – it’s all set up, the discount is 20% on all full plan sets, regardless of price… when you get to the shopping cart you will see the discounted price. Runs until January 15th. Now’s your chance to start building!
I only saw this picture of Steve’s KHSD 36 chartercat-in-a-box when a soon-to-be-customer emailed me this picture from Korea. This picture is in Bellingham, WA.
Robert Wakeman sailing his KHSD version 1 Tomcat 30 trimaran on Mobile Bay sent this video. Seems it plays on Facebook but here demands that I update my player.
I just got permission to release this composite 12′ trimaran design to the public. It was designed to go into production in China. Plug on the project got pulled. It has an unstayed mast. Diameter in the model looks a bit large. It could also be roto-molded.
Sarabi had double curved tempered safety glass put on her front windows. They are beautiful and strong. Not everybody can find it though. I got a call from a group from New Zealand expanding in the US. Not sure of price but…www.durashieldmarine.com and

A few things recently combined to create a huge transformation in how I view the nature of design plans. The first element came from David Smith. He suggested putting bar codes on the plans so that smart phones could link to specifications and the like. Nice.
Then, I had to get the new printer; a fast color printer. Just-in-time printing is possible instead of copying off of old originals.
The last idea came from attending a Native sketch comedy group, the 1491slast Friday. They had most of their sketches on and playing from YouTube. YouTube has been around a while yes, but seeing it used this way inspired me. Just-in-time prints could not only have specifications linked by Q-codes (barcodes), but also the latest how-to video from YouTube. Or even video of the design actually sailing. All on a smartphone, so totally portable. Or right on the shop floor with no other infastructure needed. No PC nor video screen is needed. That was one take-away from being in Uganda; smartphones are everywhere. Technical papers could have references or even useful video embedded in them. I think this is pretty big. A shot of the printer again.
