Is there a variation of the llf mini called the "explorer"?

I remember seeing a drawing somewhere but after hours of searching can't seem to find it.

There were some clear differences in dimension and design.

Can anyone post a link to the thread or the pictures??

Also going to have a go at the "pacific magic"!

Thanks
KO

I have hard copies of those drawings/plans.

I am talking about a single drawing similar to this one only it was drawn by Paul.

If you do a search on Landyachts (Pauls) pictures you might find the one your after.

the "explorer" was the name we tagged onto those first 2 minis we built in the LLM thread. the explorer has a loveely comfy fibreglass seat that was commisioned by the owner of thw yacht . A mould was taken off the original mould and chook2has built a number of seats from it

I'm sure I've seen it but I can't find it.

It was like the Clemco LLF mini drawing I posted. The difference is that it was a Paul Day drawing with the flying pig on the drawing and it was a Tee frame, Not a Y!? It was an overhead with a side view on the same sheet.
Maybe some images are archived after a while, like the original mini plans and alot of postings. I'm tryng to find it to avoid building a V chassis.

Don't get me wrong, the Clemco design is awesome but I want to stretch it out a bit and it be easier to build.

No but thanks for the help.

I'll go with Clemco design and just make it a tee and stretch the width and length.

Thanks again.

The Sail making and construction threads are missing most of the threads that used to be there.
The only way to link is through pictures, sometimes! There is a lot of discussion I wanted to re-read. Sai;l making only goes back to 2015.

As a matter of fact, all the threads seem to have the same thing going on.
