MR-08,
classic looking cruiser
Behind
a classic looking-like conceal a modern cruiser. Her powerful hull
allows her
to provide comfortable accommodations.
.
Comfort
Le
The
MR-08 offers 4 berth, a separated bathroom, a galley, a chart table and
plenty of storage place.
The
headroom is 1.80m. In addition to the port lights, two hatches on the
top of
the roof bring light to the salon and the fore berth. Then, a large
cockpit
has
several lockers under the seat and in the aft compartment
Hull appendage
Two
solutions are showed here:
Classic
long-keel: with a classic drawing, simplicity of construction and
standing on
her course.
Fixed
keel with pivoting center board: good compromise between performance
and
ability to cruise in shallow water. The outside ballast guarantees a
good
righting moment and protects the hull’s bottom when beaching. The two
rudders improve stability under sail…and
stability in grounding.
.
Rigging
Gaff
rig: for lover of traditional rig, with advantage of short spars and
option of
pivoting mast.
Marconi
rig: simplicity and efficiency
Construction
Planned
to a plywood construction, the panel of the hull, deck, roof an
accommodation
are developable. Thereby a CNC plywood kit can allow a quick
implementation. .
