    The Odisea 48 from Odisea Catamarans has just started to get built in Vietnam. The design is complete, the paperwork has been done and now the factory has had 4 days to start the job and they are welding like madmen.

      hey, it looks like you've come to the right place with your ALU boat and nice people .. a small question, I can come down and help... and maybe you should learn to weld in aluminum with ,,,,MIG and tig and electrode so if the accident is due you can fix it yourself and other things or with tec7;) ..until now it looks good. from Viking Denmark/Norway

      They might want to complete the hull on this one to evaluate cuts, placement and wrap before moving on to the next. Why train on 2 hulls? The next one will be faster and easier after they train on this one.

      If I were you I’d be so excited to get going in your new catamaran that I’d forget to eat. 😂
      Don’t be so obsessed with the your plans that you jeopardize your physical health…

    My Sunchaser 58 usually came out at 23/24,000# but it had two big Yanmar 170hp engines and an elaborate interior. And I never found a buyer who would let me build it the way I wanted to. Rich guys have all the gold and thus are always right---!
    I take it that your hull #1 will be rather minimalist if you want to circumnavigate with only electricity. I spent two weeks in the Bahamas on a Wylie 44 that was one of the first electric sailboats. It's power system was different than the way everybody is doing it now. Big fixed slow turning prop optimized for the 7-12 knots we usually sailed at. You could just tweak the throttle to go from the prop just barely turning over at no drag to generating maxim regen to the batteries.
    Fair winds.

    Merry Christmas to you and the build crew. I had a great Christmas with grandchildren and other family. But, I did sneak off to spend some time with boat porn on Yachtworld and Sailboat Data. The basic structure is coming together quickly. That is awesome. I have a concern about bulkhead positioning and alignment. As the welders move forward, they are tacking every bulkhead based on measurement between bulkheads. Each error in measurement may be tiny. But they are additive. I would have felt better (not necessarily rational) if they had been setting the bulkheads with laser spots on the structure. I recognize the potential to miss a calculation of make a programming error that makes lasers less accurate. Is there a final check on the alignment, spacing, plumb and square? It's just my engineering quality control that askes, "How accurate is that method?" I just want to have an answer to that question.

It's a fascinating read if you ever feel the need to learn about the early days of submarine design and construction. The US Navy had a submarine built that was driven by a steam engine powered by a high pressure steam boiler. They quickly gave up on that idea when the people tank get so hot that they couldn't dive with it for more than a couple of minutes.

    I also like watching MJ sailing building their catamaran. Took them a year to get as far as you in 2 weeks!! Great work in that factory
