I came in this morning to find both the website and email down. Myservlink has been better than Drizzle was, but it is annoying. I assume they will have it fixed soon.

Am I the only one who thinks the heavily buzzed new trimaran Rapido 60 looks like an old style F27 made bigger? Didn’t they just used to copy Tony Grainger? To me it looks like a big big step backwards in styling. If they were still cloning Tony it would look much better. In my opinion. And what does it add that wasn’t done 25 years ago?  Besides a cockpit roof.  http://multihullblog.com/?s=gs61

Maybe everybody knew this, but I finally sorted out how to get the panes out the the frames on these. 

The problem was getting the plastic frame split open to free the crazed acrylic pane.  I finally figured out that several laps around the seam with a matt knife does the trick. The exploded window frame shown below.

I need 4 more of these 4″ x 14″ ports if anyone has some to sell. Either color.

Been so busy with the projects that I forgot about the annual holiday discount. Any interest in it this year?  I think I have been doing that for some 7 years now.

Let me know if anyone was ready to purchase plans.

I would recognize those amas anywhere. In a better workshop than I ever had.

Unit 2, Blubird, is almost ready for launch. Plywood/epoxy CM construction as was unit #1.  Earthwise Ferries.

I was introduced to the surveyor. The surveyor, Matt asked if I knew his father, Robert Harris? Robert Harris wrote Racing Cruising and Trimarans, the book that got me started in this. Robert also helped me with a deadbeat customer and the courts once. Yes! What a great surprise. Great surveyor too. Matt Harris. www.harrismarinesurveys.com

And the book.  I need to take a better pic than I found online.

I went up last week to the haulout of the KHSD 36′ daycharter cat in Bellingham, for survey. It looks like it might be sold.

I have a half dozen postings that I can think of,  but I seem to be under multiple deadlines by everybody, so the postings have to wait.  Maybe tomorrow or Friday.
