Reply To: HT Specifications over the years

Hi, well as you know with all sorts of boats the variable specs can vary lots, with cats you have no doubt smiled at the weight saving comments like “cutting the toothbrush handle down”. I have changed my HT lots over the years and removed weight by getting rid of the teak or iroko front platform, reduced the rudder size, the heavy table can easily be replaced with a lighter version. Some HTs I have seen are well overloaded, I guess it depends what you want. I have also reduced the hobby horsing by removing the weight at the bow & stern. Do you have twin engines or an outboard ? You can email me if you wish drparr@hotmail.co.uk.
