Vudu 3.8 and we'll have a website up sometime soon at vuducats.com where anyone can pay their class fee and download the plans in the desired format they want.



That is very clever!

What is the deal with the names? Two F-12's that look like a great start to a class and one is named Dark Side and the other Vudu (sounds like a different spelling of voodoo). How about naming these great little cats something that gives visions of performance sailing rather than the occult? Again...great boats...but the names leave much to be desired.

Bob

Maybe the kids should vote for the names ? It's their boat right ? It should be cool for them not for the grown-ups.

For the record while the DS does stand for Dark Side (in my head anyway) it is a DS12 not a Dark Side 12.


Enjoy the exposure of a youngster to the "Dark Side" of sailing, without fanfare. Let the DS12, or any F12, be the enabler.

Mono-slugs are the dark side...When one steps up to cat sailing then they have entered the light...

It is all part of a conspiracy designed by what will ultimatly become the Universal World Power. I think George B. is behind the naming of the boats....

That's the democrats' version. The republicans blame Al Qaeda.
Wait! Oh, no! George B. and Al Qaeda are conspiring together

This is a pic of the kids checking out their new boat. So far Billy and Grahame have built enough hull shells for 2.5 boats.
The boat now has a name .... Vudu 3.8 and we'll have a website up sometime soon at vuducats.com where anyone can pay their class fee and download the plans in the desired format they want.
Cheers
RG





That's incredible, nice work!

Then maybe the boat should be LS (Light Side), or FS (Fast Side).

But that is for the other thread. I don't see anything wrong with "Kiwi."
