  • We jump aboard Bruce and Kays 12m power cat, for a look at this great peter Brady design.
    We cruise extensively along the East Australian Coast on our 13 meter catamaran. Join us as we explore new cruising grounds, cross bars, fix all kinds of problems, ride out rough weather and live aboard for extended periods.
    We even have a playlist that gets us on other peoples boats.
    We hope that our videos encourage others to get on board and experience this fantastic lifestyle.

    WOW. Bruce reminds me of my dad (I am a lot older than Bruce) but he embodies all the wisdom and Engineering skills that my father possessed. Dad was a Marine Engineer, and finished his time in Australia at the Commonwealth Government Engine Works where they rebuilt many a *Napier Deltic* engine that was fitted to the Old *PRINCESS OF TASMANIA.* The old man ended his days as Superintendent Marine Engineer. Bruce has a trait that my dad had. They were and are both innovative men. If he were working on a car and did not have a tool to access a part on the vehicle, he made one. Bruce I believe is the kind of chap who would do the same. Excellent synopsis Lord Dude, and I look forward to more vids like this. Cheers!

      @@MotorSailingforOldDudes Hello Lord Dude. Many thanks for your kind remarks. I most certainly learned a lot about engines from my dear old dad (God Rest his soul). I remember as a young boy in the early 1950s, dad used to pick me up from school, and go back to work at the docks in London and take me aboard the various ships he was supervising engine works on. I used to end up down in the engine room with him, and he would point out the various aspects of the massive engines that drove those ships. Dad was formerly a Chief Engineer on the Orient Line boats (which was later amalgamated with the Pacific & Orient Line, to make the P& O) and Orient Line. Other ships he worked on whist a shore based Engineer were the Bibby Line (ss. Derbyshire, ss Worcestershire, Warwickshire et al). I remember all the names of the former Orient Line boats that the old man worked on and that we travelled on during the school holidays. I really miss him now and all the good times we had aboard those ships. When at home, I remember we had a little Austin A30 car back in 1952 that the old man bought new. One summer, he decided to decarbonise the engine. Dad and I worked on that engine together , and I remember using a "Lapping Stick" that was used to seat the valves. I was only about 6 years old at the time and I remember using a paste to seat the valves in the Head. He taught me a lot and dad was delighted when my son took an strong interest in becoming an Engineer. The old man used to put the kettle on when it was time for my lad to come home from school. The lad came home, said to me "Hello Dad, Goodbye Dad" and walked off to the Granny Flat in the back yard, where the two of them used to have long conversations. In the end, my lad did graduate as an Engineer from Swinburne Uni, and today he is an associate Director of Engineering with KPMG. He now lectures Naval personnel on HMAS Canberra and other naval vessels, and is presently in South Australia preparing for the Nuclear Subs when they eventually come. When I asked him what of work he did, he said he could not say anything other than he is a "SECRET SQUIRREL." His son Cameron has just been admitted to the Engineering Faculty at Swinburne to start his 5 year Engineering degree.. Sorry to put you to sleep here Lord Dude. I sometime get quite nostalgic when I think of my dad. Take care my friend.

    I remember meeting Peter Brady racing moths out of Cleveland yacht club in the early 80’s, sold me the plans and the timber strips for my moth then ( i still have that boat). But the thing i remember about Peter at that time was how generous he was with his time to help a young kid keen to get into boat building. in the early 80’s he had the Scimitar on the drawing board and running out of a little shed in Lota. He is a very interesting chap. Great video Norm, thanks you for all your hard work putting these out.

    1Nm per Litre, Excellent! wondering Norm whats the best Peggy- Anne can do if you pull the throttles back or go single engine? with sail assist that should help with the fuel numbers too👍do you normally go with a single engine if the winds are favorable? your engines are similar both boats Kabota based engines,
    Bruce Nanni 130hp, Norm Kabota 40hp?
    Cheers

    • @MotorSailingforOldDudes
      @MotorSailingforOldDudes  23 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yep. Can do that Mal. In 15kts of wind sail does work of one motor.
      2000rpm = 5.5 no sail
      2400rpm = 6.5
      Sail up to 2 knits extra.
      Thanks for commenting Dude.

      At displacement speed for a full displacement mono hull .
      1.34 times water line length in feet equals hull speed in knots .
      Cats due to their narrow hulls cheat this rule slightly . Peter Brady calls this hull design displaning Malcom Tennantt was another kiwi using this concept .
      longer hull faster hull speed adding bulbs lengthen the water line.
      It can also add buoyancy at the bow helping sea keeping in a narrow cat with fine bows .

    • @martinsmallwood9605
      @martinsmallwood9605 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      opps thats
      1.34 times the square root of water line length in feet equals hull speed in knots .

    • @MotorSailingforOldDudes
      @MotorSailingforOldDudes  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Added the bulbs for more buoyancy up fwd. after filling in chines down aft.
      They did the trick dude.
