52 Aerorig Cat

I had the occasion to visit this nearby 52′ catamaran project on a kind of forensic expedition. I always thought it odd that it looked so 70’s even though it was designed in the 90s.  I have always been amazed that it used a space truss to support the unstayed mast even though it has a substantial bridgedeck and cabintop right there. See Prior Art at http://www.multihulldesigns.com/pdf/aero56story2.pdf.   And I was shown some astonishingly bad laminate design. More on that next week when I get these deadlines met.
