Jeff,
Flash Harry was styled by me, the new one, styled by Steinar, is on the drawing board, will be on the web page when it is finished.
We decided to only keep current/relevant projects on the blogs to keep it simple. Flash Harry is happening, but slowly. The owner is also building a house.
Rob,
Hulls folded from a single sheet work well for Solitarry sized ww hulls, but get time consuming for bigger versions. We are now building the hulls in flat panel moulds, which gives a lot more options and is less messy. No excess to trim off for a start, and landings for everything can be included. On the lee hull of the Cruiser 60, there should be no wet laminating or fairing apart from the foam hull ends, which are built traditionally.
Luc,
Conventional cat hulls built this way would be a bit more work, due to the rocker, but otherwise, you are correct.
Rob/Talador,
Standardising the interior saves a lot of time and money, as does eliminating corners and indents in bunks mattresses. A lot of IKEA stuff is usable, but I'd steer clear of anything mdf based on a weight, soakage and rot basis. As long as the interior is simple, it is very quick to infuse it and to include all edge finishing, doors, hatches, joins, etc. Then glue them into slots in one half of the hull and glue the other half onto them, using slots which were included in the infusion.

I believe the infused designs came after the Vis Cruiser with the Vis Schooner. The vis schooner is not on the new website, but it's page saidThe weight and materials cost savings on the Visionarry Cruiser are in the order of 25% and the time savings even higher.You can still find that page at
https://web.archive.org/web/20140114062925/http://www.harryproa.com/index.php/design/21-visionarry-series/30-visionarry-schoonerThe only one I remember seeing started was Flasharry, which was abandoned and sold as a project mid build. That boat is also missing from the new site so far as I can see...I can't quote it, but I thought I remember the 50% estimate thrown around for time saving...Which would put an infused Rare Bird @ roughly 2,250 hours for $63,750 AU.Which raises a good question, why isn't the vis schooner on the new site? I guess it's replaced by the cruiser, but I'd still like to see it on there, even if in a "outdated/old designs" section. The build blog of flasharry was worth reading, even if it's never completed. Of course I'd really like to see someone finish her!On Sun, Jun 7, 2015 at 3:48 PM, robriley@rocketmail.com [harryproa] <harryproa@yahoogroups.com.au> wrote:
