This shows how the Mainmast fits into a channel in the back of the pod to rest on the integral mast beam.

Cockpit with higher seat fitted for helm.

Back view showing drive leg, later changed to a longer leg mounted higher.

Shows the later concept of a much higher base to the unit to keep clear of waves. There is standing headroom under the mainsail so a Bimini can be mounted.

This is something I thought about, taking a long cabin from the height of the cabin top at the back right through to the bow. I don't think it would add any windage and would be a lot more roomy inside.

Shows how it fits on the deck layout. The pod has room inside for a dinette/double berth.

The pod and cockpit sit between beams 2 & 4. Beam 3 is integral into the back of the pod.

This shows the original concept with a low slung nacelle.

The front and top of the cabin have the same slope as the side cabins.
