Sorry Crazyhorse,
OK, lets talk about your AST a bit more!

Jonny Fuller · 18 January 2003, 20:04

Wot's it's predicted speed?

Jonny Fuller · 18 January 2003, 20:07

Do you have any drawings you can post, or artists impresions or something?

crazyhorse · 18 January 2003, 20:13

Whats its st all about?

my top is aprox 36/38knts

Cant give you any drawings Tiger as I dont know what you would do with them.Maybe put a 16 cyl cheevy in it and all that stuff.

Jonny Fuller · 18 January 2003, 20:15

Come on Crazyhorse,
I can't believe a guy as enthusiastic as you about this subject, let alone your own boat, doesn't have some images we can all look at!

Jonny Fuller · 18 January 2003, 20:17

And range, did I read that you have 2x 80 galls...US or imp?

Jonny Fuller · 18 January 2003, 20:19

Does the 33' you quote in your profile include tubes, or is that hull length?

Jonny Fuller · 18 January 2003, 20:20

And I told you to go easy with that "Tiger" stuff!

Jonny Fuller · 18 January 2003, 20:23

How many berth? what utilities?

Jonny Fuller · 18 January 2003, 20:25

And one other question, why have you gone to the trouble of removing your location from your profile?

Jon / CrazyHorse

I had always considered crazyhorse with his 4 posts a day ( average ) as a sign of someone with too much time in his hands but I reckon that 3 consecutive Emails from the same person is some kinda record.

I reckon if you were shipwrecked on an island you would thrive !

No offence is meant by the above and ( message to crazeyhorse ) , many threads have meandered off the initial subject and, imo, this is no bad thing and what web forums are all about. Its like being at the pub without beer, other friends and totty.

On second thoughtsI’m off to the pub !

Regards Mark

crazyhorse · 18 January 2003, 20:35

Mark none taken and i would give it my best shot if on a desert island for sure.I might worry those cheeky monkees for a time though.

crazyhorse · 18 January 2003, 20:49

Thanks for your continual interest Jon,I shall take it as a compliment or a real New found interest in Cabin Ribs.

one its Tanks are imp at present 80 x2 gall but probably upping to 100 not decided yet.

33 ft includes tube 30ft hull

4 berth x cooker sink shower fridge etc

I didnt know it wasnt there,maybe somebody has done it for me .

Im based in the North West and you never know who is watching.So untill you get to know somebody i dont think a bit of annoniminity is a bad thing.

If your queering my quotes then query away as i try and be as accurate as i can.In the hope it may help others.

We all make mistakes,so its always best to find things out for yourself,if we can point people in the right direction then we have helped.You see I like to help as I had none exept from on here and rib international.The trade are in the job to make money and there advice has that slant at best.So thats why im on here.

I have some othere buisness next wk so I will not be on anything like as much from then on so will you miss mi Tiger.

Crazyhorse,
I wasn't querying your quote's, I don't know what gave you that idea!
What stage of construction is your boat at now?

You didn't say whether or not your builder has any kind of web site, or indeed what the builders company name is!

crazyhorse · 18 January 2003, 21:13

Its been floated hydrostaticly on the autoship CAD programes and weight tables have been produced , its all spec up and sighnd up and the engines and electronics are already in Canada awaiting a build slot.

We shipped them out from here in December.

You will see a slightley altered Set of line drawings appear soon,

Its speed is certified by using The savitsky formula and certified as being correct by a British naval architect and The calculations follow that savitsky formula. For speed and displacement of the vessel.

I hope this helps

Jonny Fuller · 18 January 2003, 21:17

your post says engines...plural, does it have twins?

crazyhorse · 18 January 2003, 21:23

No,its a single for economy with a long shaft Honda outboard 30 hp to get you home at displacement speed,if the big un breaks down.

Carrying an outboard is difficult if it is stored, so it has to be fitted on the transome and fastend in such a way that it doesnt shake itself to bits at speed,so we sent it out as it can be fitted there.

Jonny Fuller · 18 January 2003, 21:45

Allan p,
nearly 7000, that's a lot of hits! so Dirk has something to aspire to then!
Come on Dirk, how about a bit of controversy or something, it seems 4000 hits is just chicken s**t! But remember, I had to send a large cheque and a box of chocolates to JK when I stepped out of line (3 times) so let that be a warning

PS. maybe thats why Flanker isn't back on, he wouldn't buy the chocolates!

crazyhorse · 18 January 2003, 21:48

it aint quantity Jon its quality.

When you going out in the boat and have your views changed with regardes ribs at all?

Jonny Fuller · 18 January 2003, 22:02

sorry crazyhorse, I don't understand the question!
