Large Naca Foil aluminium paravanes plan/ Michael Kasten

[balder8]

Hi,

I sent an email to Michael Kasten but do not receive answer. I am looking for a pair of large Kasten foil paravanes, fabricated in aluminium like those pictured page 92 of Voyaging Under Power ( fourth edition). I have quite heavy fishes on my 57' , actually 64' and 55 metric tons trawler.
The Michael Kasten web site offers to buy the plans but may be currently inactive..

Any advice of experience in real with this kind of "fish" would be appreciated!

I didn’t get an answer either when I emailed them a couple of years ago.

I later built plywood ones.
