Buying a Hirondelle CatamaranHi, looking to buy a 1973 Hirondelle Catamaran MK1. Before I plunk the money down for a survey, does anyone know if this Cat has cored decks? Any issue with daggerboard trunks? Can't find any construction info on them. Thanks for any help. ***found my answer*** For those interested, the deck is glassed balsa core. Good luck with the new boat. You're going to love it. Top Contributors this MonthHirondelle Association 2 October 2014 The Hirondelle Association is for Multihull sailors who have a leaning towards the Hirondelle catamaran. It was first set up by a few like minded and dedicated guys who exchanged ideas and comments and enjoyed sailing their excellent little craft. In those early days there was only time to work for a living, sail as much as was possible and then maintain the boats. As technology has moved forward, a few things have become a little easier and allowed us just a little more time, this has been used to set up the Association, now we can communicate much more readily and hopefully enthuse each other to get more involved in our sport (or enjoyable pastime). We are a forward looking group with a driving force to improve our boats and our enjoyment of them, we will do that by passing on our ideas and any modifications we may feel we can justify, without too much compromising the original design. We market our own design pennants. The Association welcomes articles on modifications to other Hirondeller's and if you are thinking of parting with your pride and Joy we are happy to circulate for sale ads at no additional cost. home | the boats : mk I \ mk II \ mk III \ family | about us | membership | contact us | site Powered by Online Assist .

Catamaran newbie - sailing and mooring tips please- Thread starter ninky
- Start date 6 Aug 2013
Just taken ownership of a Mk 3 Hirondelle. Had our first sail delivering her from Emsworth to Gosport on Sunday. A bit of trouble tacking her round on the first attempt - two hulls requiring greater speed on the turn than my Jag 22 it seems. Am after tips on boat handling from any multihull sailors - no big scare stories please, have already freaked myself out with all the drawings of capsized cats and talk of inverted escape hatches in my Multihull seamanship book. We are just going to be pottering about the Solent on the slab reefing main and roller genoa for a good while yet. Swing mooring buoys - what do you do for longterm swing mooring use? I currently have her on one chain over one of the bow rollers, with a rope looped through from the other bow. I thought a second chain on a swivel from the buoy would be a good idea, but the mooring owners seem to think it will be a tangle risk and better to stick with rope for the second bow, possibly cleated further down the one chain. Nicola Active memberI have seen a cat moored to a fairly short strop onto the forward cross-beam. This placed the buoy between the hulls and obviously the length was critical to avoid contact with the hulls. Don't know whether a Hirondelle will ride like that, if the cross-beam were too far aft she might not weathercock as she should... Rob. I owned a Hirondelle mk 111 and it was a wonderful boat , she was moored in Southampton water on fore and aft buoys , I made up 2 x strops so she sat centrally to the trots . 2 x bow and 2 x stern , this, naturally , divides the loads between two cleats -always better, 50 % loads . They are light boats so will sit happily on 3 strand 18/20mm. make yourself a bridle for anchoring with a chain hook so she will always sit centrally to the anchor / buoy . lovely boats , enjoy ! grafozz Well-known memberAgree with pteron, loose off the main sail as you enter the tack and keep the jib/genoa backed until the bows are blowing off. If you do stall 'in irons' reverse the helm and the boat will sail backwards onto the new tack. In the books it always tells you to bear away if hit by a gust, you will need to test it but I always found it safer and more instinctive to head up (unless on a broad reach). If it's boisterous, it can pay to tack the centreboards, windward board down/leeward board up. I always used a heavy rope bridle to each bow on a swinging mooring, chain is too messy (personal opinion). Clip the bridles together when leaving the buoy, they won't then get tangled. Best tip, enjoy it. ninky said: So whereabouts should I clip / cleat the bridle(s)? Is the aim to even the load out between the two hulls? I'm guessing I should also be careful with keeping even ballast across the hulls in terms of stowing heavy items etc. Click to expand... oldbilbo said: Run a line from the head of the mainsail down beside the luff to a turning block by the mastfoot, and then back to the cockpit. This 'downhaul' can then be used, as the name suggests, to haul the sail down from the safety of the cockpit and assisted, if need be and with care, by a sheet winch. Enjoi! Click to expand... I had a cat a long time ago. Home made at 23 by 12ft. The thing about cats as has already been mentioned is the problem of being overpowered. A keel boat will let you know it is overpowered by leaning over and generally behaving disgracefully. The cat when the wind comes up just leaps along in a joyful manner going very fast. This belies the fact that you are loading the rig incredibly. I destroyed 2 masts in as many years before I got one strong enough and or I got smarter. Also of course there is the risk of bow in and capsizing. So you must as skipper either have the instruments and know the numbers that matter or be very wary of lifting a hull or of going fast. I would suggest perhaps a 10knot speed limit or even less. That will call for serious sail reduction. Get a cheap GPS for speed indication. As said tacking is a pain. I found that usually backing the jib ie hold off releasing until you have the main full on the new tack was all that was needed. In rough water you might find even this is not enough . Watch for any tendency to go backwards and ease the main sheet as said. I hope you enjoy your cat I have to confess I ended up with a trailer sailer for various reasons and I love the windward sailing ability of the little TS but the cat certainly had advantages. olewill Colvic WatsonThe Mk1 was over rigged and over canvassed, the Mk3 was much more conservative, you'd have as much trouble capsizing it as you would your old monohull. They're a delightful boat, well mannered and suitable for gentle pottering without giving a fig for how the weight is distributed. Sailing a small cat like that is relaxing and rewarding but you get almost none of the feedback you would from a monohull. As for mooring, make up a bridle from the hulls to a single point, and use it for the swinging mooring or attaching to your anchor chain. And ignore the doomsayers, if you fly a hull or burry the nose you'll be the world's first Hirondelle Mk3 to do it, stick the weight wherever you want to and enjoy the coastal pottering. The Mk1 was a handful, but well sorted out by the time yours was made. Almost every cat to capsize has been an Iroquois, the damn things need floats on top of the mast - stupid design for a cruising yacht in my opinion. Cheers Lazy Kipper. Reassuring to hear positive things about the Mk 3. She certainly seems a good choice for us from my research - wouldn't fancy having to faff with dagger boards and the like, although I guess the little keels do give a deeper draft (still really shallow - 76cm - for a boat of her size). The main reason for getting her was I wanted to keep OH on side with the sailing, and he was getting pretty fed up with accommodation in my Jag 22 (which is a great small sailing boat imho but more for diehard sailing lovers). OH loves the Hirondelle, and even I have to admit she is a lot more comfortable for a couple when spending time on the mooring - plenty of room in the cockpit and on deck for friends too. If anyone has nervous partner, my experience so far is a cat is a great option (don't tell them about pitchpoling!) - doing 7+ knots to windward in a F4/5 on Sunday and not being keeled over, or having things slide about in the cabin, is quite different to sailing a mono. Nicola Lazy Kipper said: How would you pitchpole a Hirondelle? Hope you have loads of fun with her, have you come across this site? http://www.hirondelle-association.org/ Click to expand... ninky said: That's a really good suggestion. Thanks. Click to expand... I hope its acceptable to resurrect a thread like this? Its just it seems to have exactly the right kind of participants for my questions. I have been offered a Hirondelle at a "project" price and am very interested. However I am aware that the mk1 has a bit of a rep. To be honest the owner isn't certain if its a mk1 or a mk2. (any tips on identification?) So, I see on this thread already the excellent advice on the scandalising of the main and the pull-down idea. Both of which I would definitely implement. However, I suppose, my first question is .. Should I ? I do have an OH to consider too and don't want to put her off etc. I'm a competent sailor so, once I know what I should be doing I'd be confident enough. But I do sail in an area that produces quite a swell on a regular basis... Would I just be driving myself mad with this boat?

Hirondelle MKIHirondelle MKI is a 22 ′ 8 ″ / 6.9 m catamaran sailboat designed by Chris Hammond and built by Brian Carvill & Assoc. (UK) starting in 1968. Rig and SailsAuxilary power, accomodations, calculations. The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more. Classic hull speed formula: Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL Sail Area / Displacement RatioA measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more. SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3 - SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
- D : Displacement in pounds.
Ballast / Displacement RatioA measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize. Ballast / Displacement * 100 Displacement / Length RatioA measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more. D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³ - D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
Comfort RatioThis ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more. Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 ) - D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
