Seaquel

[Gav]

Your opinions please on this....

A 16'6" seaquel , only a rough idea but gives a perspective...

 

[Captain Chaos]

Gav,

to be honest, it dont look half bad. I've sorta taken my eyes slightly out of focus and the general shape looks pretty good.

I'd be tempted to put a little more depth in the deck moulding at the stern. but heh, its only my view.

do you plan to purely stretch the 14 hull, or will you add say 6" of beam?

 

[Gav]

thinking of stretching length.

by raising the hull sides will effectivly give a little more beam.

Thinkin of a total redesign of the deck though. not too sure at this point.

 

[Captain Chaos]

deck looks fine, other than that the screen curves around quite a narrow radius and thus alot of the cockpit width is lossed until you move a good ft or so back.

I'd get the 21 Signature on the go and just redesign the screen.

[Captain Chaos]
