All hands-- Yachtsmiths International followed the PUP Perfect Passagemaker thread closely and has come up with a preliminary design that includes a good number of the ideas that were outline on PUP over four months last fall. The design is called Pathfinder 46 Trawler and the drawings Brian Smyth, co-owner of Yachtsmiths, provided I've posted at the Trawlers & Trawlering sister site that I'm getting ready to launch. It's called TrawlerCrawler.net and is temporarily located at <http://67.15.157.5/~trawlerc/>. Eventually, it will move to <http://trawlercrawler.net>. I invite you to register and continue the Perfect Passagemaker discussion on PUP's Web-based sister forum. (PUP as an interactive email list will continue as long as there are people who prefer the email format.) The other forums and features of TrawlerCrawler.net will open for traffic soon. --Georgs -- Georgs Kolesnikovs Your host at Trawlers & Trawlering, formerly Trawler World, since 1997 Site see: <http://www.trawlersandtrawlering.com>
