Transformation Continues

Fellas,

Thanks for all the kind words, it is unexpectedly nice to have our work validated!

Jill made a Commissioning Pennant for Ebbtide. It is not official or 100% correct but it sure is nice!

Time to answer a few questions.

1. Rolling motion. Not surprisingly the motion is slightly quicker on the return but the amount of roll is less.

2. Speed. There is no difference.

3. Windage. Not surprisingly it is less but unexpectedly the pivot point in the wind has moved forward about two feet.

4. Fuel economy. No change.

5. Reaction to changes. Very much a positive. We have gone from just another GB 32' to something unique and pleasing.

I guess the bottom line is would we do it again and the answer is yes.



Thanks for watching,
Bob & Jill

You have/are doing a wonderful job. Will be some time before I get opportunity to really spiff out our Tollycraft. You've produced a unique craft.

Your boat looks great without the fly bridge but I'm with Boatpoker. My flybridge is one of my favorite things about my boat.

Cruising in front of Mt Baker and showing of the pennant Jill made.

We walked by in Anacortes last weekend; you were busy so we didn't say hello BUT she looks as nice in-person as the photos!

 

[Bob Cofer]

We are never too busy for company! Next time step right up and say hello!
Thanks for the kind words also,

Bob & Jill

Two People Having Argument at Sunset:


Person one to person two - For God's sake you're clearly sloppy drunk!


Person two to person one - Yeah, and you're obviously freaking crazy!


Person one to person two - I can't deal with a drunk person...


Person two to person one - Well, I can't deal with a crazy person...


Person one to person two - I can't deal with you till you sober up.


Person two to person one - I can never deal with you!


Person one to person two - How's that figure into the equation...


Person two to person one - Listen a-hole... Tomorrow I'll be sober but you'll be crazy for the rest of your life. That's how it figures in. And, that's why I can never deal with you. Good Day!

Very cool! She is a beautiful boat. I really like the transformation!

 

[Bob Cofer]

Decided to take the plunge and go with a glass dash. This is the mock up, will be using the inset Garmin for engine monitoring and backup.

 

[Nomad Willy]

Really like the picture of Ebbtide in 109.

Changed out the incandescent bulb for an LED light. Way more output and a lot less draw.

On my list of things to do (maybe).

Tell us more, Bob. What kind of emitter did you use? Does it still have range?

 

[Bob Cofer]

I used an off-road 7" LED spotlight and modified the searchlight housing slightly to accommodate the new assembly. Very happy with results.
