Details, details, details ... combining the plethora of panels with with fiberglass and resin is tedious but not so visually stimulating.  Highly engineered lamination schedules provide additional strength with less weight.  The results are not visually apparent, but structurally significant.

Installation of the refrigerators and icemaker is completed.  Pictures of the installed refrigeration systems were added to the respective page.

3D solid-model renderings of SEDATION 4 are finally available.  More images will be added frequently, so check this page often.

Rudder design was tedious but it's finished.  Details of the unique break-away mounting system may be posted IF this doesn't compromise its' patentability.
The Miami International Boat Show commences in just weeks but, obviously, SEDATION 4 will not be making her planned debut there.  Substantial revisions to the propulsion engine scheme are being devised and details will be posted asap.  Design nuances of the Hoyt Balanced Rig and sailplan are also in progress.

Right now (8:00 pm EST) it's 77° F, here, in Cocoa Beach.  Wow ... what an evening!  Gotta go play :)
