kCook, jimminychricket and interested, i'm meanwhile thinking of a ladybird with wingsails so here an update (Mod´s note: This is a 2.8 Mb PDF downloading)
The design reminds me of a much larger version of this boat that I saw in Marina del Rey a month ago: It's a 28' ELORCA Ellips Powercat.
thanks for the compliment and there are some similarity's my ladybird can sail as well, is bout 50ft and wavepiercing ps. above 3d PDF update is best viewed in v8 and downloads in sec's
i need a some new stuff too but have, they say, 10 meg a sec. checked again and from here it opens like changing yachforums pages. dare to comment on the new sail plan?
