Boat: 34' Searunner Tri | 02-01-2010, 07:31 | | Boat: Ex liveaboard, now grounded. | has the outline information. Hi, Jmolan, good idea to make a thread just for the new Seaclipper 20. Do you get the feeling interest in the Searunners is on the up and up? Hope so, maybe it's because the design values are more long lasting than onboard HDTV.... Now I have a real dilemma on my hands - build my own cruising tri half-size model for testing which will come out about the 18-20 size, or go for the new Seaclipper. What the hell, either would teach me a great deal. Or how about building both? Steady, now... | | | 02-01-2010, 16:02 | | Boat: Searunner 34 and Searunner Constant Camber 44 | | | | 22-01-2010, 18:40 | | Boat: Windrider 17 | | | | 23-01-2010, 08:34 | | Boat: 34' Searunner Tri | | | | 23-01-2010, 08:38 | | Boat: 34' Searunner Tri | Jim Antrim for more info. | | | 25-02-2010, 08:25 | | | 26-02-2010, 14:15 | | Boat: Windrider 17 | 28-02-2010, 11:19 | | Boat: Searunner 34 and Searunner Constant Camber 44 | - I spoke with Jim Brown last weekend who showed me the model he was working on which matches the drawings. The model is his way of physically verifying what he has imagined will work in 3D. The main hull is identical to the drawings, as are the asymmetrical amas.
- Jim said two real boatbuilders, both name Scott with one living St Augustine, were going to build the prototypes in order to help with feed back. I had thought he meant amateur boatbuilders but from the plans I now assume he meant pro.
- Jim said he was going to put the study plans on line but the finals would be for sale .
- He noted he was also working with John Marples on this.

The Seaclipper 34 is capable of offshore passages and extended cruising. It has standing headroom in the main cabin. The aft cabin is a full-berth layout with privacy. Wing pods to expand the main cabin are optional. For coastal cruising, the akas can be dismounted for easy transport overland for winter storage.For offshore sailing, it is recommended that the boat be glued together permanently.

I started getting answers to that question as soon as I stepped aboard a Seaclipper 16 designed by John Marples of Searunner Multihulls and one of nine designs in the Seaclipper series of trimarans. The hull is constructed of 7 sheets of 1/4″ six-ply marine plywood, five sheets of 3/8″ nine-ply, and lumber in commonly available sizes. ...
There is a SeaClipper 34 and now apparently smaller versions. There was a recent inquiry asking if anyone knew of a modern version of the SeaRunner and one reply suggested the Constant Camber series. It would seem to me that the SeaClipper would be considered a more modern version of the SeaRunner, even if it was designed by Marples and not ...
I think something like a Seaclipper 34 could be built in 1/2 the time of the same size Searunner,, especially if you use an outboard. You could do this on a larger Seaclipper or on a Searunner, but an inboard is a lot more realistic for those. ... Trimaran - Especially Searunner - SeaCllipper 38.

Just a quick comment on the Seaclipper 34. I guess not as common as I would have thought compared to a searunner 31 or 34. I've been pouring over the plans and I noticed my set is only sail number 37. Miller's, the first one completed back in the early eighties was sail number six. I now know of 3 or possibly 4 completed.
The ocean frequently whips up some steep seas that concern me and would terrify my friends and the special-needs adults I work with. A year ago, I began building a Seaclipper 16 trimaran, designed by John Marples. I chose this trimaran for its stability yet speed. I also wanted this seating arrangement where the crew needn't scramble from side ...

He asked boat architect John Marples if the Seaclipper 34 design could be modified to be shorter by a couple feet. John was able to accommodate his request and Roman built it. Roman writes: I built a John Marples Seaclipper 34 - modified to 32 ft. I did not want want the aft cabin so John shortened it and added more rocker to the main hull.
SEACLIPPER 20 Well, Jim Brown (in partnership with John Marples) has been at it again and he's come up with something that could certainly interest those ready to go weekending in a small but tough and stable trimaran—a boat with enough heft to glance off a few underwater obstacles without much damage, as well as taming down the nervous excitement that a small light boat like the WETA offers ...
Some of these older trimarans really suit my needs and wants better than any of the new designs and after being in touch with a lot of designers I recently purchased a set of building plans for a John Marples Seaclipper 34. ...

The first Seaclipper 20 under sail in Saint Augustine, Florida. The Seaclipper 20 is suitable as a family daysailer or an expedition trimaran. Mike O'Brien reviewed the design in WoodenBoat No. 217 (Nov/Dec 2010), and a class at the WoodenBoat School in the summer of 2011 built one in nine days (see WoodenBoat No. 227 (July/August 2012). The ...
Paul pointed out that putting a full cabin on a trimaran that is primarily going to be used for "daysailing" can waste valuable cockpit space. For example, if you'd like to be able to regularly go sailing with 4 to 6 people, then the seating area in a boat that has a full cabin is going to be limited. That's why he designed the micro ...

Jim Brown's newest design, the SeaClipper 20, does in fact employ a swing wing for docking and trailering, which brings the amas underneath its fixed 8' x 8' platform. Jim intends to release the SeaClipper 20 design plans in the near future. 26-02-2010, 14:15.
