Boat of the Month, 2021.

- Once in a while, I pick a boat or a boat design that is interesting and worthwhile to present, study, and publish.

- This is the case for "Away,"; a Cat-Schooner with a free-standing rig. Designed by Michael Pope, who also built the boat.

- I received from him a very comprehensive dossier, and I am taking some of his comments for this presentation.

Class 40.

TYD#414 CLASS 40.

- Original Model year 2008. TYD#282.

- A new commission for a Class 40.

- This one from Hawaii. Unlikely place for the Class, nevertheless, a boat with a program of long-distance travels.

- Observer of the 40's, I started in 2008 with the first study, a simplified version to get my feet wet, as seen above and below.
