This week no boring PowerPoint presentation but just me and the 3D model. We look at the updated hull shape, which has been modified for the new displacement and centre of bouyancy location. Also the panels are faired and made developable and the bow shape has been fixed.


For the Keel, Rudder, Sails and Rig the sail area has been increased, the booms moved up, the standig rigging added, and the rudders and propellors moved further aft. The keel has ben shortened and increased in depth.


The General Arrangement shows the new raised aft deck, which enables the Accomodation Interior to boast a 10 PAX passenger area and covered outside seating area. A bow thruster has been added, and the required safety gear such as liferafts and a rescue boat.
Enjoy this weeks video 🙂
