The new design

[jacquesmm]

If posibile put the inboard under the sole. ( i wish that by LB26) for more space in the cockpit.

Impossible but I worked hard on the location and it is not obtrusive at all.

hmm, does anybody ever read my posts or is it too much in english and I have to write it in Greek

I Looovvvveeee it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

in reference to Jacques design.

Along the lines of Bolger's Blackbird

and

And Reuel Parker's Commuter 36

and

and his Commuter 27

I never said it was like those.

I love the wrap around windscreen.

The engine compartment could be used as a table.

I know jacques' has a hard chine, and I like that

I think she's lovely, Jacques. I want the inboard. This seems like it would fit the bill as a great mulit-purpose boat for my family. Hope it has a relatively deep cockpit as that is what SWMBO is asking for. I will buy the plans.

I know it's a hijack--but what exactly is SWMBO. I get the reference but can't figure out the words! Not that I am obsessive compulsive, but I have to ask--feel free to delete/edit this post, but hopefully after someone answers?

Oh as for the boat--beautiful, about 6th on my list, not that I have BBV. I like the inboard, you have lots of outboards already. Any ideas for power yet? I'm guessing 60-200 range, depending on how heavy the build is. That provides lots of options. Not quite a one lounger desiel banging away in back, but doesn't have to be overboard either. Maybe it's fifth on my list! I have a friend that wants to try an volkswagon 1.4L desiel conversion as a project...85-110 horse at 350 lbs?

She Who Must Be Obeyed

[jacquesmm]

The FL26 is designed for diesel inboard between 30 and 50 HP. With a 50 she will go around 18 mph, 14mph max. with a 30.

She Who Must Be Obeyed

A phrase most commonly used by Horace Rumpole, esq., not uncommonly after a liberal portion of Chateau Thames Embankment.

He in turn is making a literary allusion to the novel She bu H. Rider Haggard, whose better known work is King Solomon's Mines.

Any chance we can get a shot of the bottom?

It's flat with a skeg, there isn't much to see.
The next step will be the study plans page.
