archipushka Posted November 9, 2020 Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 The MessAbout12 plans included in the Kudzu book (2) appear to be very different from the craft pictured on p.62 introducing the chapter (which has a double chine and is 12'6"). The store Mess About renderings look to be single chined but it is hard to tell. Anyone know if the two differ and if the below is the latter version?

Kudzu Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 All my designed are chinned. Very hard not to in a SOF boat. I don't remember any specifics on the Book offsets but there isn't a multi chinned Messabout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archipushka Posted November 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 My post was poorly composed but basically I wanted to know how to find the boat pictured (actually p.61 in the book) Definitely multi-chinned. Too bad I like it a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchmellow Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 The OP's picture looks like the FreeB to me: http://www.kudzucraft.com/web/boat-designs/freeb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kudzu Posted November 12, 2020 Report Share Posted November 12, 2020 Not sure what the image is but it is not a real boat. Probably an image of one of the developmental models of the Messabout Series. The Mess About 15 has the extra stringer but it is flush, not a chine.
