Good day,
I am committing myself to having refitted my Miura by 2022. In the meantime I need to design and build her rig. I work abroad and only get back home for 7 weeks every year over summer break (Jul -August). I have a substantial bare dingy hull I have used for a number of years as our workhorse marina tender but a mate of mine has the identical dingy hull which is completely rigged and which I have envied for a long time. I think going through the process of designing a rig for my hull and building the sail here and rigging the hull next summer would be a good learning experience for the bigger project.
My friend is a 3D designer and made a quick mock up of his dingy (See attachments)
In the absence of my copy of PJR which I left at home I am planning on using Arne's 'book' to design and build her rig.
Step one is to do a bit of mocking up using scaled sketches the hull to determine things such as CLR and CE. However, how do I get such hull drawings if I don't have them? Bare in mind I'm on the other side of the planet from my hull right now.
This is the beginning of a long learning process for me so please excuse my lack understanding of the most rudimentary of things.
Many thanks,
Nic Dekker
