Boat Hull Design





Got a "mystery photo" for you today...

A few things we know from the guy that passed it to me, or can guess with a close examination:

  • Photo was taken in France
  • About 7 feet long
  • Sail/power/both? Looks like it has pintle mounts for a rudder (sail), but transom is fairly beefy... outboard?
  • Looks like its a nesting design (looks to have a 'break' at the midpoint.
  • Rowlocks - normally nesting boats don't have a good sitting position for rowing, but...
  • No seat evident
  • Translucent skin - fabric?
  • Interesting diagonal supports for the hull form
  • Should be light weight

Anybody want to toss a guess out? Some of the skin-on-frame kayaks seem really neat to me, but haven't seen it used on a dinghy, especially something that comes apart for storage.

This is the ONLY Blue Monterey Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV in the world!! This beautiful monster just flew into San Francisco Lamborghini yesterday (from Sant’Agata Bolognese, Italy) and is waiting to be trucked down to Orange County to be driven by Roy Cats in the Orange County Lamborghini run February 26-27.
