I'd like to express my sincere gratitude to Bernd, the masterful designer and moderator of this forum, for letting me bring in some unorthodox thinking, despite the obvious sliding off topic.

Ah, something to add to a high speed watercraft ramblings (well, sorry, seems so offtopic). There is an excellent Turbowing concept tested and proven by late John Malvestuto. Ingeniously effective at

I tend to agree: it is a state of mind willing to optimize any design to suit personal requirements. Myself thinking about merging nice accomodations plan of Bernd's excellent Eco6 and 6.5 powercats

Hi Bernd and Brian Thanks for the direct reply from both of you. I liked the Kd105 From the first time i saw it. the design has that simple but apocalyptic and fast look. Longer time ago i was looking

Thanks Bryan, I am still coming to grips with how this messaging system works. I don’t understand it yet. I will try as you suggest Cheers Keith Sent: 12 June, 2022 7:59 AM To:

Keith I dont want to sabotage this topic on the KD105. Why dont you briefly describe your circumstances in a new threat with a topic like " most suitable smaller design to suit my situation" or

Hi Jan I know, there are not many photos from a KD 105. K-designs is a one men's operation, from the toilet cleaner, the designer, to the general director. So I can and have not built all my designs.

Hi Short, you are right, the CWL shows the loaded weight. So you have a load capacity of 2400 kg. (2,4 tons) I am wondering about the weight of your equipment for diving. Ours was around 150 kg. We

Hi Bernd, and all. Thanks for the valuable info! Overloading here means exceeding the c.w.l weight, correct? Nice weekend to all of you.

Hi All. Thanks for the input so far. I do understand now that I need to keep a big eye on weight. Event more I thought before. Well, the bronze portlights are more mentioned as a general inventory

Hi Brian, I have just purchased the drawings for a 520 Duo. I live in Rotorua and my closest harbour is Tauranga. I think you sail on Tauranga and I liked your 480c. I have a mooring in Pilot Bay

Hi Jan I wouldnt have thought this design would be the best choice for a live aboard, even stretched. Theres only the nacelle for any real living area. Bernd will reply better than me but I recall

Hi to all. Love the KD105 design. Only a shame there are no pics or info of any build-and-finished ones around. On the 3D screenshots its hard to see and imagine how it`ll look and sail. For instance

Hi Pepijn Thank you for reminding me that there is a video sale that shows the Manta very well. I agree with your remarks. The mast support is changed in the plans after your advice. And yes,

Hi Marc, excellent choice! Superb safe and tough design. I lived a few years on the Manta Lucia (you probably still can find the advertorial movie on YouTube somewhere). But as you sum up your

Welcome Marc I am pleased to hear that a member of the forum will build the Manta. I'm curious. Hello

Hi Marc! I am very excited for you and I wish you joy and resilience in the process. I look forward to seeing your pictures and maybe even videos. I will let the others who live closer to you answer

Good morning fellow people, my name is Marc. We, my wife Lilli and I, are planning to build a catamaran. A Manta (or 'similar') would be lovely. Yes, 3000+h is plenty, but we think we can make it with
