Re: Isometric, Design 501, Live-a-board Scow Schooner

Does anyone have a link to the MAIB article? It's in the May 1, 2001 issue, and while I think I have all the magazines from that era, they're not accessible to me right now.

As a secondary matter, has there been any discussion about archiving MAIB in .pdf format and offering them on cd's like so may magazines have been doing? I'd think it would be a money maker for Bob Hicks if he could find someone willing to do the scanning.

Another masterful job.

Somewhere PCB wrote "I eventually did design a schooner with a full-length house. It isn't easy." I think he was referring to this design. I tried to sketch out a similar vessel at 28 feet, 20% smaller. All sorts things didn't translate. There are a lot of little bits that look like they might have been purely cosmetic that are required for function.

PCB wrote about cabinets from Home Depot.

The hull is 35 feet long by 11 1/2 feet wide.
A couple could retire in a ship like that and live happily ever after, hurricanes and all. Just stick it in a mangrove swamp and ride it out... beautiful hull.

Great rendering, Bruce. Looks pretty big - are there any measurements ?

One fun thing about studying Bolger designs is that there are so many
little known masterworks in the opus.

This design 501 certainly qualifies as little know, but it is a
monumental boat. Published in MAIB, May 15th, 2001.
