The Rig:
Rabannah is Cutter rigged
with a removable inner forestay.
The jib is raised using a car that slides out the bowsprit, meaning we
never have to go out on the sprit unless we want to. We are still perfecting our systems and are playing around
with different sail configurations.
Like all things, she is a work in progress.
Lines Drawing:
The horizontal line is the Designed Water Line.
Interior Layout:
Late in the build we switched
the orientation of the aft cabin to sleep athwartships, otherwise this photo is
accurate.
Lines Drawing:
The Inner line is the
designed waterline, the outer line is the sheer.
Here is a condensed video showing the building process.

Had to come check out your blog again now that I'm not looking at in on a phone with sketchy wi-fi in some San Juan anchorage! I just watched the video of you all building Rabannah. I have so many words of admiration and respect and at the same time I'm speechless. To build your own boat must be an incredible commitment to a dream. I cannot even grasp how much you all had to learn and comprehend to complete such a lofty goal. MAJOR kudos. And I find it absolutely awesome that we met you all at a moment in time where Living the Dream was exactly what we were all doing! Hope to be in the same place at the same time again soon. Take care!
