One more I forgot:
Steve, I was in the yard in July when a guy hauled out what he called his Crowther 34 Buccaneer, launched in 1997. He isn't the original owner. It was sailed in the 2017 R2AK by someone else. Boat name was/is? Lung Ta which I believe has a history with the NW Multihull Association in Seattle. He'd kept it in Pt Hadlock for a few years after he bought it. He was going to do a bunch of work on it.I know nothing of trimarans, but I thought this one looked cool.
Anyone know what it is?
Steve

Thanks Fleet, I never got the memo nor have I seen the reference in nautical lore...Fleetwood said:
I'm actually quite fond of kraSh's setup, guess I'll have to turf my Killing rudder since some keyboard genius says the tiller setup's no good... :blink:

Dimensionally very similar to the Herreshoff S-Boat, my first "real" sailboat when I was 25, a half-century ago:

This was originally posted in UglyBoats by @Santana20AE .. and while it is indeed ugly, I think it's also way cool.
It seems to be made entirely out of scrap, with zero concern for aesthetics ... but it floats, it moves and it looks like its lived on. I think it's a piece of eccentric genius

Well, it looks more well though out then this one does
note: In the event an explanation is needed, this is an attempt at light-hearted fun as a result of an earlier thread…

True, but that's not a high bar
I think the junkboat is also way cooler than yer man Bezos's new $500m toy:
Ain’t my man! But money can’t buy taste…True, but that's not a high bar

Sorry, in Hiberno-English that phrase "yer man" is non-possessive: https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/yer+man
