Elementarry leeward hull in 2 parts ?   Message List

Re: [harryproa] Elementarry leeward hull in 2 parts ?

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 middle would require the beams to be removed. If length is a problem then removable bows would still allow telescoping and tipping up on the trailer. Let us know what the problem is.

Subject: [harryproa] Elementarry leeward hull in 2 parts ?


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 ...

... 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...

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....

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...
