Here I thought it was Richard’s sparkling personality that attracted the crowds. Maybe it’s because Profligate is such a great mother ship. 63′. Its been traversing the waters along Cali and Mexico forever. Sail on.

Kamanu, a 36 foot daycharter catamaran was my first COI vessel. I remember designing it during the 1984 election season. It has been carrying passengers for more than 30 years. Cylinder molded plywood epoxy.  It just popped up on Facebook so I noted.

For some reason I can’t resist a quirky project. And with some people paying late, the cash flow helps.
This fellow wants to keep his prize VW, taken from his inefficient pontoon boat, and get a more efficient sled under it. I modeled it with the 36′ Boat in a Box charter hulls. It will require a lot less power now.  For the Mississippi River.  He will be notorious.

I will be attending IBEX 2018 next week in Tampa.
The product vendors are the best reason to go. Anyone with one of my projects wants me to look at some equipment or products, let me know.
I will have cell with me or text. 206 719 4893

The most common feature that I hear about now with foam/glass multi builds is the difficulty in finding and getting core. I can’t believe this lot hasn’t been all grabbed yet. It has a waiting time of as soon as you pay for it.
It’s ideal for multis of 35 to 55 feet long. Bob Lanford, I gave seller your number that you gave me. It doesn’t work. Hit me with another way to contact you.
some glass is also still available.
prices are very good.
Again:
CORE CELL A600
LINEAR STRUCTURAL FOAM PLANKING
3/4″ 19mm (6PCF)
(Bead & Cove) Planks – 2.50″ Wide – 89.50″ Long = 235.75 sq. in.
235.75 sq. in. / 144 = 1.55381/sq. ft. per plank
120 sq. ft. /1.55381/sq. ft per plank = 77.2 planks

Plank Count /Box = 272 planks
5 Boxes = 1360 planks = 121,720.00 Inches/12 = 10,143.33 Total feet

I worked up the first run at a new 30′ fishing cat for a customer here in PNW. Dead simple design and build. Double chine for rapid build with lots of payload. Ply/epoxy, with core as needed.

I had the pleasure of sailing with Alex on his KHSD 45 cat with Aeroesque rig. It was a beautiful day on the bay outside of Blaine. Thank you Alex.

I just finished the revision drawings for this unit to be built in Australia. Based on the 65 ferry cat.

CM plywood/epoxy.

this unit was only funded through schematics, but I went ahead and did a beginning 3D model anyway. There was no chance to trim the aft hull area and add the swim steps yet.
It went on hold for now.
