#shorts Off grid living requires attention to detail. If a towing line breaks it could mean losing a very valuable piece of equipment for those living aboard a boat. Knowing a few basic knots turned a potential headache into a minor fix. Also, setting up a redundant system saved me from having to buy a new dinghy! My advice is ALWAYS have backup lines if you tow your dinghy. Also, I should have put in abrasion guards of some sort but I didn’t! Off grid living requires planning ahead. This was a clear example of just how important that is.
The Multihull Centre is, we believe, the oldest boatyard in the world that specialises in multihulls. Founded in 1968 by Pat Patterson of Heavenly Twins catamaran fame it has been my home base since 1982. Sadly I am not often there these days, but did take this video today of the boats in storage. Dazcat build their boats here, but for general yard details see here http://www.multihullcentre.co.uk/ See my designs at www.sailingcatamarans.com of course
Hinckley invented an entirely new class of boat with the introduction of the original Picnic Boat nearly 25 years ago. Picnic Boats are open-air express yachts designed for relaxing and entertaining. The spacious, open-deck designs are ideal for lounging with loved ones or serving a small party of friends. Superior visibility while seated or standing, gives captains a more commanding view and a sense of connection to the environment. Today, we offer the most refined iterations yet, all updated with state of the art systems and technology. Hull construction combines inner and outer layers of carbon laid bow to stern for incredible strength, durability and weight savings. A single infusion of epoxy forms a chemical bond for a lightweight hull of incredible strength and durability. Weight savings in the hull structure allow for the signature teak woodworking accents which are Hinckley hallmarks. The innovations in hull materials allow us to provide the luxury on deck and below deck which our owners and their families love.
