Re: No Subject

No personaly, but I did run across a webpage where they described sailing
one, but can't seem to find it now.
You might post to the bolger mail list.

Ed ,
No the Chebacco is not designed for leeboards, however i have done
calculations using L.Francis Herreschoffs work in this area to assure myself
that the design would accept leeboards without any of the problems you
mentioned ... i am intending to use a cross between the Bolger "jochems"
design and a Herreschoff one . I would not be prepared to go with a forward
raking board in order to avoid some of the problems associated with flotsam
and jetsam , however my system will allow a great deal of flexibility so i
will endeavour to give an objective answer to this theory in due course ....
( e.g. after the now belated launching date )
I will also be experimenting with a little " toe in" on the boards to
assess leeway angles .... Simon .

Russ,
I'm also curious about that one. I've been drooling over Champlain
lately, but wish it could sail. I guess I'd like something of a "slow
motorsailor." Lots of glass, lots of interior, and head room, cruises at
6 knots with my 9.9 Yamaha, plenty of fuel and holding tanks, and still
able to turn off the noise and play with strings. Don't know the perfect
one yet?

It is split into two lines. Combine them and it should work.

Bill,

What does the family schooner look like. Is there a cabin, and is it
trailerable? What are the specs. Is there a plan any where on the net? I
would love to chat more about it. . . as I'm interested in bolgers light and
folding schooners.

Chuck.

Hi Bill,

I would be interested to hear about your schooner and your experience with
Bolger. The boat sounds familiar (was it described in "Messing About in
Boats"?), but I don't recall the details.

Do you have any pictures or website about the schooner? Did you build
yourself?

Thanks for starting this discussion group. I am sure it will be popular and active.
