Gypsy and other high performance rowing boats
Hello Guys
I've "loaded" the offsets of several of the more speciallised 3 or 5
panel rowing boats into my Hulls program to analyse the
hydrodynamics. I've got a Michalac "RB42", a Woods "Linnet", a
Bolger "Light Dory Mk V"and Cartopper plus a couple of others.
I would really like to get the offsets for the Gypsy, and Welsford
Light Dory if anyone has them or knows where they can be found on the
net. I could also request the book "Build the new instant boats"
but it will take ages to come from our interloan request system.
Cheers - Foster
PS Of the boats I've analysed so far, the Cartopper has a very nice
set of parameters (apart from a short waterline) so its no surprise
that people like rowing them.
