muzled 140 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 There are some... I follow Historic Vessel Vega and they're often posting cool vids of traditional building and photo's of old boats. https://www.facebook.com/Historic-Vessel-Vega-125068434229063 This is the Cutty Sark at Mill Wall back in 1937. No wonder she was so fast. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Priscilla II 375 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Always wondered where Nick got the inspiration for his AC75 flat shoed keelson from. Not that it proved to be that fast nearly 100 years on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When they did the 3D model they need a base support for initial 3D printed trial, someone forgot to tell them to cut it off. By the time they trailed it the engineer responsible thought best to shut up and leave it there, hoping that no one would notice. The rest is history. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
