DesignProgress 1702010

Preliminary design is pretty much complete except the location/type of the boards. A rough weight estimation of the platform is around 900kg, with spars but no rigging.

Tiny mods to cockpit well, galley layout, lenghened prod and added another forestay. Current rig can take up to 100sqm of SA for light winds, quite substantial for a low aspect rig. The galley can sit 3 crew max for a quick meal.

Did some rig tuning, moved it aftwards with beams and all, redid bulkheads.

Boring sloop rig. If I'll keep it I'll have to move it a bit further aft.

Minimum cooking gear. Obviously the real utilities will allow tilting. Since most of the platform and interior is layed out the next step is to take care of the rig and the following modifications the rig will impose on the design, also harbour propulsion is an issue that needs to be sorted.

Optional center pod with hard deck. Pod provides sufficient storage for sails and other, cooking facilites possible, also stiffens the platform.
