Elementarry leeward hull in 2 parts ?

Message #1197 of 6619 |

This a question mainly for Rob but I think it can be of interest to others, so
I send it on the list.

Someone in France is asking me if it could be possible to build a leeward hull
that could be dismantled in 2 pieces (for transport). Do you think it is
possible and what would be the charge for this option ?

Regards

G'day, Not easily as the join is at the highest loaded part of the boat, and the mast step has to be included as well. Better to make the join outside the ...	proa@... proaharry	Dec 11, 2004 11:12 am
... Is this a special Elementarry? Surely the standard design is a schooner so there's no mast at the centre of the boat? Cheers, Dave...	Dave Howorth Dave_Howorth	Dec 11, 2004 12:33 pm

Rob, I can see it now. A Loooong Elementarry slides up to a dock on a balanced rig. The dock population gathers to watch this waterborne starship find a berth....	Peter King pckingpcking	Dec 11, 2004 3:10 pm
Is this for everyday transport or for shipping? If the former it would remove the great benefits of telescoping etc that the boat now offers. Splitting in the...	Mark Stephens markstephens...	Dec 12, 2004 9:12 am

G'day, The telescoping would still be possible with the join in the middle, but the beams would have to be removed and replaced each time the boat was taken ...	Rob Denney proaharry	Dec 15, 2004 10:19 am
Hi, If you had the boat split down the middle for everyday trailering there wouldn't be much point in having the beams telescope. Telescoping allows the boat...	Mark Stephens markstephens...	Dec 16, 2004 8:42 am
Hi, I am intrigued by the engineering of detachable bows. I can imagine it for single directional craft but my imagination doesn't seem up to fairing and...	Robert cateran1949	Dec 23, 2004 3:13 am
