Re: Was Red Zinger pictures, and ballast - now small motorsailor

It was originally  written up in SBJ not MAIB. At least if it was I never saw it.


MJ has a flat bottom whereas the SMS  has significant dead-rise with the sloping bilge panels although that may not be the proper term. I think it was meant to be motor-sailed remaining upright with the upper chines well above the water whereas MJ was intended to be sailed heeled like most sharpies. Don't think it would pound when motoring like a sharpie might. I found it noteworthy Mr. Bolger wrote, "The project went off in a different direction, but I still like this proposal myself and think something like this would make somebody a pleasant cruiser." I wonder what design eventually arose? SMS also has higher topsides than MJ.


Perhaps the design concept eventually came to fruition with the Alaskan Motorsailer #610. That design has received rave reviews from the builder.




I also see the original sail plan was changed from gaff to balance lug main with full length battens and all sail controls leading inside the pilot house. Often wondered if this was Mr. Bolger's idea of a simpler Chinese lug sail? I enquired about that but got no reply.

Oversize the Main.  Two tabernacles.  Same pin.  same sheet, halyards etc.  Would likely take say 30 minutes to 'convert' from sloop to catboat...  No clubbed-jib though...
So, when will you start...now that this is resolved so sweetly ?

The point would be to participate in Catboat Association events. There are some folks with sloop-rigged Marshal 22s, but they either have to race without the jib (bad helm balance, reduced sail area), or are disqualified from trophies.

From a pure sailing point of view, I'm sure the jib is a plus.

Nice. I asked as there are various sketches/drawings/shopped/cut'n'paste images about of Bolger boats with doghouses or Navigator style cabins - AS19, and Long Micro come to mind, for example (there is a photo clipping from a 4sale ad showing a Long Micro actually built with similar doghouse/cockpit protection). It seems there's always been a lot of keen interest in fitting this type of crew protection...

What's the load carrying capacity of #525 SEABIRD 86? I'm guessing about 1000 - 1500lbs (500 - 700kg) from:

LOA: 23´ (7,01m)
LWL: 21´9´´ (6,63 m)
BEAM: 7´9`` (2,36 m)
DAUGHT: 2´6´´ (0,75m)
DISPL.: 4100 lbs (~1700kg)
SAIL: 276 ft² (~25m²);

BALLAST: 1100 lbs (~500kg, Stefan's quote for his ballast)
HULL at sailaway: 1500 lbs (~ 700kg a guess, 1/2" ply, rig, motor etc)

Let me add, I think Bolger's concept for the motor sailor is very sound and spans a wide range of sizes. This 22' is similar in concept to the Alaskan Motor Sailor which has been built and seems a fine boat. Then there is the 100' freighter Sir Joseph Banks, which, though simply a big sharpie, uses Bolger's operational scheme of a small, continuously running engine and a proportionally small sail scheme.

IMO this small motor sailor would be a great boat for "The Great Loop" around the East half of North America.
I am certain there was never a release of plans for this boat, with a number, etc. Bolger used MAIB to 'float' new design ideas, seeing if a sponsor for the design surfaced.

I always thought of it being a Martha Jane w' a box keel. But certainly that isn't correct. However, an MJ w' a box keel may perform similarly, eh??

Arava is a much bigger and heavier boat, somewhere about 30 feet. It was meant as a liveaboard.

The Small Motorsailer is one of those boats based on a certain internal logic that is mostly invisible to boaters at large. Sailors will think it's a bad sailboat, and powerboaters will think it's a bad powerboat. It takes a strong understanding that it's right for YOU to be happy with it.

If you want to lean to the sailboat side, a design that you might look at is the Navigator version of Seabird '86. The original is said to be cramped inside, but the Navigator version should help with that. With a 4-stroke OB in a good well, you won't much miss the inboard.

Or, if you want to lean to the motorboat side, go for the Fast Motorsailer.

If you can move beyond plywood to a fully round-bottom design, look to the Marina Cruiser, and I think there is a somewhat similar Single-handed Cruiser.

c.ruzer,

Not sure I understand what was intended here? In my original query it was about if the plans for this design were ever developed.


http://groups.yahoo.com/group/bolger_study_plans_only/files/Small%20Motorsailer/ 


Also not aware of a PCB Arava. Is that a similar design for which plans ARE available?



You all know how a person can get "hooked" a particular design (Right William?) and this one had me hooked first time I saw it Small Boat Journal a long time ago. And with the small China diesels available nowadays still holds my interest. Not as an off-shore design but one easy to get under way with from a mooring maybe? Even if there is not much wind. I really like the looks as well in profile, along with the pram hood or whatever that is called.


Have wondered about a cutter rig as well or even a light-air dipping lug like the original FMS as the mast seems to be in the right location.

I bought Red Zinger's original gorgeous tapered hollow mast and mainsail from the original builder Dr Zapf way back in the early '90's, to replace a rotted solid-plank mast on my Black Skimmer (interesting that the two mainsail rigs were nearly identical in size!) as by then Dr Zapf had chosen to install a far-more-rigid tubular aluminum mast so he could fly a big symmetrical spinnaker for the avid club-racing he was doing with this boat at the time...  so the design was constantly evolving, even from the original build...

 

Regards,

Wayne Gilham..... out here on the Left Coast in Tacoma WA

 

bereft of any wonderful Bolger boats in my fleet right now.... as I sold my Black Skimmer to a fellow in Spokane some years ago, with his promises that he'd be doing a full restoration.

I think Bruce Hallman has those bright green Pagan pictures stored somewhere on his website. I was fortunate to save them when then passed a few years ago, but I especially like the recent, interior shots of Pagan Gold. You're relatively close. Why don't you buy her?

Say, what's with the blue trim on white paint job of these bolger boats for sale at Manly recently? Maybe the broker thinks it sells? For example, 21 photos of the Romp design Beluga Too with similarly changed colour scheme just soldhttp://www.centralyachts.com/listings/sail/beluga.html
