This is an update of the information and pictures I sent earlier (about 3 years ago) on my stretch version of the Hercules. It has taken me that long to get finished because I was away for two years on an offshore project. We launched last summer with a total of about 4000 man-hours in the boat. I've attached a picture of her at dockside. I spent most of the summer carrying out sea-trials, and this coming summer we should be ready for out first long cruise up the coast to Alaska. I'd be happy to hear from anyone building or using a Hercules, and can now supply a lot of data on performance (engine size, prop size, fuel consumption, etc. (see Project Registry for email address)
