Clipper 343 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 heres St Laurence in welly (ex catattack), guessing around 2005? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vorpal Blade 89 Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Voom and the mighty Hard Drive....never very far apart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vorpal Blade 89 Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Heres Storm before Andy bought Ocean Pacific, Silveraider, Crowded House and another unidentified GBE further to leeward. A NZMYC winter race when we used to do it from Orakei Wharf and had turns at running the start/finish, I guess it must have been my turn that day... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Clipper 343 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 TWU looks a bit different now. Looks cozy in the cockpit too. Who is the tri in the background? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vorpal Blade 89 Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Looks like an issue with some of the pics there IT, That trimaran looks like Red Alert, a Richard Edlin design about 10m. And while I am here, this is Pulse in full cruise mode - both screecher and stereo deployed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TimB 7 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I have many (~50) photos gathered and scanned over the years, what is the easiest way to post them all? tb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Island Time 1,235 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Easy way to post all the pics is in gallery. I was thinking of copying all these pics into a multihull gallery... I'll get onto that tomorrow. I'll also look into those missing pics on page 3 and 5 .... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vorpal Blade 89 Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 At least two of the crew seem happy about this particular evenings sail Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vorpal Blade 89 Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 here you go Freeeeeeeeeeeeedom, some Voom build pics. As you can see it was in a bit of a state when I got hold of it. Cockpits and cabin tops all had plywood cancer and had to go All the bulkheads and bunk tops had to go too which made it easy to cut the front off, reshape and squeeze the bow together. once that was taped up new bulkheads and bunk top to match the new bow sections were made 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paxfish 5 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Energizer is definitely a Tennant design, most likely a Redshift 10m, see below. Exodus is a Ron Given design 10m How about posting a few pics of your boat sailing. I wish I could, Pal. She is still on the hard for the winter (we got another 8 inches of snow overnight!) I don't expect to launch until April, but expect to be prolific with footage after that! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vorpal Blade 89 Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 Yeah I know I've posted this before but it has a purpose, The tie rods underneath are the primary load bearing part on F40, as was learnt by the Danish owners - when one of them breaks this is what happens...

Clipper 343 Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 it pretty cool to see a lot of boats have gone through massive changes. Timberwolf, dragon, voom etc. And look at the heads on all the old mains. Roach my arse. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
