Duo 1000 update


 

Hi Bernd, The updated Duo 1000 really looks good - particularly like the new bow. I assume the study prints have been updated to include the changes?

What length of mast and section size would be recommended?

cheers

Hi Greg
General, on the bow's underwater parts, has nothing changed. Fewer parts necessary.
It is a complete overhaul of the boat. For instance, the main beam is changed too. Again, shorter building time.
In total, almost 150 pieces less necessary to build the boat. This means a shorter construction time.
The great change is of course in the rig. Regretful, I have to say. But the parallel rig is simple to expensive.
The stability with the new rig is comparable. This was for me a main argument to change to this rig.
For the mast, I propose to use a Isomat NG51 section.
There are also some improvements. One is the addition of steps. The arrangement is comparable to the ECO 6.?
The permanent Bimini can be opened in the center.
It is a work in progress. But as good as ready. Next week the new study plan will be ready

Cheers

Bernd
