Some more progress on the Schock Harbor 25. Does have a forward hatch. Going to have a mast hinge too.

Bow pulpit is optional

This picture shows the plug being pulled out of the mold. They haven't actually laid up hull # 1 yet

In other news, they are going to build an Alerion Express 33. No pictures yet

You can see videos of the A28 and A38 here

In other news, the trend toward "euro styling" is still going strong

The cockpit really does look comfortable - and safe.
Has any one mentioned the saildrive under the bridge deck? Out of the way of the rudder fer sure.  Getting some line caught under there would not be good. Couldn't the keel be extended to close the space?

Blech! :confused: That bote has a big blister - on deck, no less!

Of course, you'd be a shoe-in for the "Ugliest Boat" prize at the local regatta...

This thing looks like it was designed by Sea Ray. I'm gonna have nightmares about this, gee, thx Pete...

Inside the pilot house is not so bad.
Looks like an executive airport lounge,
maybe from a 007 movie.

commanderpete

Yes, very nice inside.

I'm not so sure you can see where you're going if you drive the boat.

This one should give Kurt some PTSD

A Buckler ketch

keep this up, buddy, you're going to get the bill
for me falling on the floor.
Too many times, too.
From now on when I see your byline
I'm putting a helmet on!

I really think that ole girl would be better in leather.
Somebody must have loved her.

I reaaly like the wheels attached to the bilge keels.
Only the english would come up with a true amphibius cruiser.
That ther cord makes it look real secure,  imagine sailing right
up the ramp to your Vanquard.

NO problem running aground either...

I just figured it out !!! It appeared on the 3rd episode of the original 'star trek' back in 64.....space "pirates" from the planet zunaber were robbing and pillaging with it. Dam near took over the "Enterprise"...but only because Kirk and Bones couldn't respond due to uncontrollable laughter. You remember....way back when Capt.Kirk still had his own hair.

All joking aside...the TRULY scary fact is that upon it's completion...someone stood back and looked at it with a sence of pride and thought " I built that"

iceman

He stood back and said
God What have I done :eek:

"Nature is, above all, profligate...Extravagance!   Nature will try anything once.  This is what the sign of the insects says.   No form is too gruesome. no behavior too grotesque.   If you're dealing with organic compounds, then let them combine.   If it works, if it quickens, set it clacking in the grass:   there's always room for one more; you ain't so handsome yourself."

Let it combine: Part A with Part B.
And if it quickens set it out on the estuary.

I don't think I could draw a boat that ugly if I tried .
The best thing about it , is once you are aboard , you can't see it , thank the diety of your choice ( I prefer Odin )
