Pictures .....Take 2

[Illusion]

Right, think I'm getting the hang of this now.

Therefore I'll stop boring you all with random pictures of our new Phantom 40.

Don't think you've quite got it, spurious bits of code showing.

Better post some more /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Very nice. But why 4 different types of skin fittings for the various outlets? Surely they could standardise on one to keep the look clean?

It is morse code - decode the message to win a prize /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Think I've managed to de-code the morse. It says (roughly) 'This photo is too bloody big - makes it necessary to whizz back and forward to read the thread. Must reduce size of next one. Stop' Nice boat though /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Nice boat but just one observation, and I've noticed this on several other boats...the Raymarine radome is pointing downwards. This can be rectified with wedges so the the radar points towards the horizon. Helps it to see further...

 

[Neddie_Seagoon]

Might it be that it is horizontal while on the plane?

Pointing down is correct when the boat is off the plane.

 

[pelicanpete]

Very good point! Hadn't thought of that.

However, this has made me think a little further.
1) If one is on the plane, the visibility would be good, so you don't need the aid of the radar.
2) When the radar is needed, visibility will be poor (e.g.fog) and one should then be running slowly and off the plane.

And then there's the problem (in my mind) of the microwaves aiming straight at the helmsman's head (if he's on the fly bridge)?

Nice pics - I do like the Phantom range. Where are your fenders? Do you really put them all away out of site? We must do that more, ours tend to be laid in the gangway, which is a bit naughty

 

[peterandjeanette]

Looking good Phil.

Yes, my radome points down as well. Level on the plane.

Nothin rong wiv ma brian. Them macrowaves ain't urt me. Im normal. It's swmbo thats gon potty.
