1·3 days agoI haven’t seen them mention it. I don’t think they’ll [Vasa](http://www.vasa.com/ (ship) - Wikipedia https://share.google/gOopi0rHsXYjGNy6M) but they might SV Seeker.
I’m certainly not a naval architect, but I haven’t heard them say they’ve talked to one. They haven’t removed any ballast yet to my knowledge, just keep adding more stuff. The proof of the pudding will be in the floating.
I really only watch cruisers during their refit periods, so I have been paying attention. They gutted it and then built foam stringers and completely gassed the inside. Like, built another hull inside the boat. They were all proud that the boat was so strong now they wouldn’t need any bulkheads. Then they proceeded to put in plywood bulkheads. And a plywood dodger. And so many G10 backer plates on everything, bedded with massive gobs of thickened epoxy. All this isn’t bad in isolation, but it all adds up. They haven’t even started installing the systems yet and it seems heavy. Next they’ll put 7 thousand pounds of batteries. Really interested to see it launch. But they’re quite good at showing only what they want seen so it might not be the big reveal I’m waiting for.
2·3 days agoI’m a tradesman and get paid in $100 all the time. A guy from the city gave me $100 for a job. My wife, who is a treasurer for Girl Guides, traded her cookie money of $10’s and $20"s for my $100 and deposited it in the bank. Now the FBI can prove that my customer has an unhealthy cookie addiction.
I can’t wait to see that thing in the water. I wonder if there will be any free board left with the amount of weight they’re putting in.
Doesn’t work very well if you buy something directly from someone. Or if your cash is given out as change. Seems like it would make a wildly inaccurate profile.

Whats that? Trans people?
If you have never come across a down filled coat you probably live somewhere that you don’t need a down filled coat.
