So with all this talk of Monsters and Rocket Surgeons, one could think that there is a lot going on. And there is.
But there are more builds coming. Next week I am heading north, to invade my brother’s workshop and start working on my next Moth (4th one I will have built, 6th moth in total). So here is my radical new design ….
Well, no actually It’s exactly the same as my current boat. My new hull is designed to be an evolution of my current boat, which is now going really well, and is bloody fast. Not Mach 2 fast, but is definitely capable of keeping up with any Bladerider or Prowler if the skipper has a clue (which I don’t obviously).
So why a new boat? Well being a development class there are developments that I want to try to keep moving forwards, and I have learnt a ton in the last 2 years about building things out of carbon, which I want to embody in my new hull.
At this stage, I am currently planning to move the wings, rig and foils to my new hull and sell off the hull with my first generation square foils very cheaply (around the $2K) mark after a tidy up. If someone wants the wings, better centreboard and Ilett rudder, then they could be included to, but the price will go up accordingly. At any rate, the boat won’t be sold until the new one is on the water, and I make it look pretty again, as it has been a tough season on the old girl.

You should track down Nick Flutter and or the SLINO guys, they are both Queensland based and can let you know what you are in for.
