Re: TW28 Stoere meid
Looks good, because of the stupid Brexit we are now limited in the time we can spend on the Canals in Europe, Talk about an act of national suicide. Been working on the inside of my boat during the winter and when I can figure out how to post a picture I will send some up-dates. The fuel rates look...

Re: TW28 Stoere meid
An evaluation after another two years of sailing with the Stoere meid. In 2022 we sailed to Berlin and the lake area above (Mecklenburgische seenplatte). a beautiful trip. We had about 4 months to do this. In 2023 it was France's turn. Sailed the northern French canals via the Meuse, to the Saone an...

Re: Project TW28
Colin, how did I do it. The boat must be level in length and transverse direction. I read somewhere that the tip of the transom should just touch the water. So that's your reference point. Then the waterline was drawn using a laser level. When launched, it turned out that the bow was more than 8 cen...

Re: TW28 for Adriatic Sea
Dario, I have a very similar setup: 42 HP Mitsubishi, TMC60 with 1:2.5 reduction, Python drive and 35 mm axle. The propeller is 19x13. Cruising speed is app 10 km/h at 1700 rpm. At 800-900 rpm speed is 6 km/h. For manoeuvring a lower speed would be easier, so perhaps the pitch is a little high. On ...

Re: TW28 Stoere meid
Very nice Allard!!! Love to do this too when I have some more sparetime… And you’re right; much more to see on the inland waters then on the North Sea. But on the other hand what about the British Islands? Jersey and Guernsey. That would be an adventure;-) Gtrz Patrick Hee Patric, good to see you! ...

Re: TW28 Stoere meid
Best wishes to everyone! When Peter Lus writes his annual evaluation, I decided to write mine too. I subscribe to Peter's cry from the heart: more TW28 must be built . This year we sailed to the Wadden Sea and Belgium again with the Stoere meid. More than 2800 km covered in 290 hours and about 480 l...

Re: PK78 Doppie
The rowing benches are almost ready. Then I can start filling and sanding.
I also sawed a few handles in the bow and transom.
