Popeye designing boats now?

Dudley Dix has done some really cool designs. Kudos to the builder also.

Dudley Dix has plywood kits for many of his builds and shows prices for the pre cut kits.

From the forums, it looks like the consensus is they are good kits and good designs.

I have been following his stuff for a while.

Dang, this is the first time I immediately knew what it was. Wait until y'all see it has a gaff rig.

 

[Nice!]

What's up with all the spaghetti attached to what looks like a spinnaker pole? With a boat/rig like that, any spins should be asym, no?

gin pole setup for raising the rig?

 

[Nice!]

Yes, that would make sense.

When I saw it on DD's site a few months ago I wasn't impressed. But now I really like this.

Will they bring it to the Georgetown show in October?
