Recon1342 Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 I just ordered Jeff’s book Fuselage Frame Boats, and am looking at possibly building the Poco Barta. I wanted to build the Vardo originally, but I love the rounded bow and fantail stern of the Curlew and Poco Barta. I was curious as to the stability factor for Poco Barta, and any other info you guys may have. I know it’s not a common build, but I may just tackle it for that reason alone. Thanks!

Kudzu Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 I don't have numbers in front of me but it is typical for all my boats. Less stable than a commercial consumer boat but far from unstable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
