Pocket Lobster Boat

Post by Pollyjohn »

Hi, as a previous builder of one of your designs, a Classic 19, i am wanting to build something along the lines of a pocket lobster boat. I know there are designs out there but as I'm familiar with your method i was wondering whether you had any inclination towards something of that nature. I am writing from Australia and as such our max beam for trailering is 2.5 metres (8' 2"). I love the C19 but am interested in overnighting but still want a large cockpit so to do that i'd be looking at around the 7.3 metre or 24 foot mark with the mentioned beam.

Cheers

Adam

Pollyjohn , Jacques passed away , but the Nina 22 with a cabin might do for what you want , there was one built with a cabin a few years back that was nice . To get to 24' a 10% scale would be needed and I would scale length and beam

Also take a look at the Novi 23 and the DE23/25. They should be close to what you are looking for. Tom
