Thanks!So I've read that there is a camper hull for the elementary, and even found some outdated links for it on a couple of forums but I can't seem to find any pics or even diagrams. Can someone point me in the right direction? Preferably without having to weed through yahoo, since it sucks after the last few "upgrades".
An oversight. I will send you some drawings. Reality is, that apart from Doug on Side car (also not mentioned on the web page for some reason), there was not much interest in the Camper version. Doug built Side car from various cast off experiments of mine, lengthened the lee hull, tried various masts and cruised a large part of the west and south west coasts of Australia before selling it to Thailand.
While I'm at it,, anybody want to make up an estimated build cost, preferably for a flat panel infused type build?
Difficult to say without knowing what you want in the windward hull and the rig (schooner would be best), but allow about $6,000 in materials to get it to sailing stage, plus a table (flat panel moulds might be easier, and would look better) and consumables.
Seems like an elementary with both hulls would not only be an awesomely fun boat/s, but would be great practice (both building and sailing) before committing to something like a vis.
Absolutely.

Double Thanks!
