Tanton, that's the guy. Nice boats, but yes, very pricey. I seem to remember a guy entering the last Around Alone race with a cat-ketch (I'm sure that's what...

Try www.irbs.com/lists/live-aboard/ A search of "composting head" brought up over 30 postings. I found them particularly useful because there was a good...

Hello all I'm looking at the possibility of choosing a Junk Rig yacht of about 11m for long distance cruising and would like to obtain any information sources...
Thanks for the photos. The boat looks great. Are those the Olympics in the background? It doesn't look like you could fit in a windvane back there. Do you have...

Hi. I made a very simple outfit some years ago. The model sails was only 80 sq. cm. Most of my results were confirmed by professional research later, but one...
This is a subject I am highly interested in as well. My Colvin schooner (42'LOD -- about the length you are talking about) is pretty easy to reef, although...
Hi Paul. I think you are right. With other type of rigs, trysails or stormsails are used, so why not on a junk. Traditional stormsails were made of the same...
