Vancouver 27 sailing at 7kts, running under assymetric
Assymetric set up for deeper down wind. Sail very stable and can achieve a dead run. Additional weather guy connected to the tack. Tack down, guy and sheet all controlled from cockpit. Winch and cockpit layout much modified from standard.

Vancouver 27', NE UK, SW 4, mainsheet modification, beaching legs temp' on the stern.
A close uop of the fixngs would have been nice...anyway looks really lovely.
It could be a Elizabethan 23, same heal and bucket and chuck it.
I owned a Vancouver 27 from 1990. I used an electric Autohelm 2000 for 2 trans Atlantics! I now sail an Ovni 395 with that Windpilot. Excellent engineering and steering.
Well thought out boat. Thanks for posting. Does the v27 skull well? Is your boat engineless?
She will skull, but very slow - she is very heavy at around 5.5t wet. Skulling oar used principally for tight spots and is deployed from the bow where it can be very effective.
Thats cool.
The first time I have ever seen a boat with a kickstand, too cool though.
Now that is some cheap dry docking , very cool
Hi Ben would like to know a little more re modifications any chance of a youtube vid?
Thanks for interest. Regret no video of modified cockpit layout currently available. In brief: Coamings gone, flush decked right through, smaller well, new bulkhead and hatch providing large aft locker, 4 large sheet winches with associated turning blocks, fixed sprayhood from which boat can be sailed with further 2 fixed winches, mainsheet from frame over sprayhood.
@@benrichardson3510 Wow thats like a rebuild, thanks for the reply
I know this video is a fake, has to be... Come on no barnacles, no scraggy old ablative hanging off..... Yup it’s a fake ;)
That is brilliant
Fabulous sailing in comfort, with excellent directional stability and just short of hull speed. 6.4kn. You're a lucky man
... boat ^_^
No music, only the sound of the wind and a barking dog in the distance. Nice video.
Looks like a British thing to do they are a bit odd with there warm beer and all that.
I sailed the US east coast and Gulf of Mexico and you wouldn't be able to do this with your pissy little tides. Bay of Fundy - ok but only saw 3ft. tides in the north and under a foot range around Florida. 20ft. spring tides where this was filmed.
lol
Did you go to Harvard?
Well, that works of the tide ever comes back in. Otherwise it's just a little house on the beach.
Should name the boat Lieutenant Dan "Lieutenant Dan, you got new legs"
Very cool idea. Beautiful boat as well.
Makes me a little nervous.
Is that Harwich essex? Where was this taken, I'm round the corner in Brightlingsea on a fore & aft.
Is that Burnham power station in the distance?
Given that the transom says "Harwich", I would guess you are correct! Googling "Erica of Hamford" turned up this: vancouver.informe.com/new-chainplates-on-a-v27-dt319.html
Lovely looking boat and very clean too. Love the hull colour.
How is it done love to try with my boat.
No good to ask questions, uploader knows nothing about the boat. He just just seen it there, walked around it shooting some vid and upped to TH-cam. Didn't even go close to see how the supports were attached. Best to google "boat beaching legs" to get info
supports were attached with crossing cables in front..very dangerous
a common thing they do with this size. Set it up and wait for the tide to go out and clean the bottom. Save lots on in and out boat lift and storage. Yes a nice boat probably has a Yanmar 1 GM 9 hp diesel in her.
Common where? To my knowledge the only time water disappeared from a beach like this in Florida was during Katrina.
@@marcushennings9513 happens here in Ireland all the time
A classic I am full of admiration for this 27footer
Lovely little boat!
Nevermind the legs. That's not exactly rocket science or brain surgery, just a bit of common sense. Beats paying $100s for a haulout. What's impressive is the beauty of a reasonable-sized ocean cruising boat. Not the mega-boats most people aspire to and never can afford to own. As the Pardeys always said ' go small, go simple and go now'.
cool, how he or she kept it up right, looks like he or she cleaned side while low tide.
I be this video was taken by a passer-bye (that's why theres no close ups). I don't see any ladders to climb down from not even a rope ladder. The owners probably jumped in their dingy as soon as it bottomed out and they'll be back at high tide.
+Bubblytubebob The stern ladder was down...
I believe there were ladder rungs on one of the legs, like on francois vivier designs.
+Bubblytubebob There's also a bucket and brush on the ground, where they were cleaning after beaching.
the supports are ladders,,very dangerous
@@johnnyllooddte3415 Why? How much do you weigh?
There is no answer to any question,and all his videos are over a years old....rest in peace....
more like over 7 years old now
The vane gear is Windpilot Pacific. Made in Germany. Has been excellent in all respects.
What model of windvane is that please?
Did you have any trouble with wave action when beaching, such as lifting and dropping the keel or legs onto the mud? How did the relaunch go?
this is like oops I did it again
Hey Ben, it would be nice if you'd reply to genuine questions.
Why do you cross the steadying lines?
to hold the suppports at bottom
I would like to find out measurement for those legs if we can make it for our V27
Is the v27 as slow as they say?
There is a company that makes them and seems to be only one. Google it
I would like same one for our V27, did you made them yourself?
