Way cool! I prefer the round portal, but the 'Gooze is looking good!
Does the mast need so much height? If the halyard runs to the tip of that mast, it has a long way to go to get back down to the yard (assuming that you rig according to MIK's recommendation). That could introduce a lot of play fore and aft like a pendulum, no?
Nice waves too!Dave

Hi to all
some answers:
About 90 square feet of sail.
Mik draws the sails and spars, so I have take some "artist freedom" when modeling the spars and sails. So the mast might be lower, when Mik draws the final spars.
The bow windows are fun, but I like the look without, but why not?
And here is pictures when healed ( and sorry I just cound not resist... )

Perttu, I can see you're having fun! To keep things very simple, do you see any difficulty with replacing OozeGooze's cat yawl sail plan with a single masted rig like Ocean Explorer's?

Hi
"layot" like this needs main mast as front as possible and centerboard
as back as possible, so there is enough space in cabin, so I think it will need mizzen sail.

Michelins are just married and deeply in love so sometimes it´s hard to understand them.
I asked Mr Michelin about stars and he reply : Only stars to me are Mrs Michelin eyes..
I have to interrupt him and I ask about the boat? how many stars would you give ?
He answered to me : When I sail stars are my roof.. on back I heard Mrs Michelins voice : come inside cabin, it´s could outside, you are getting flu again ….
So I did not get any decent answer.
( sorry of my bad sense of humor - to all of you )
