Design 2396 Seguin Series 44 and 46
Holimar - Hull #2This successful semi-production yacht was built by Lyman Morse of Thomaston, Maine in the early 1980s. 14 boats were built from a common hull mold, although virtually all had customized deck configurations, rigs and interior arrangements.
Here is a typical interior arrangement with aft cockpit and "short house" (deckhouse ends before the mast).
And here are a couple of alternate layouts for a deckhouse configuration where the deckhouse is extended to just forward of the mast.
Here's a sail plan for a center cockpit version of the boat.
And here's the tall rig and short deckhouse sail plan.
The difference between the Seguin 44' and 46' was simply a reverse or traditional transom.

Exotic Paddle Series 4 New Zealand Hoe
A beautifully carved Maori paddle (Hoe) from Steve Pyne. The blade is stunning of course, but check out the hollowed loop on the shaft. Never seen anything like it!
Details & Description from his site:
Hoe is a canoe paddle. The highly decorated versions would normally be used for ceremonial purposes by the Chief's. Decorative work in which notched ridges run parallel to one, two or three plain ridges is termed Rauponga. Within the design the plain ridges are known as Patapata and the hollows between the ridges as Haehae, while the notched ridge itself is termed Pakati. Each individual notch is an Arapata and they form a diamond pattern called Tuara-kuri. The eyes are inlaid with paua amore colourful relative of the abalone. The spirals serve as points of movement or joint marks, for the jaw, shoulders, elbow & hips. The "three fingered hand" is found on many ancestral figures, some also show a back-bending thumb or spur. This shows an avian feature superimposed on the human image.Length: 1660mm
Width: 155mm

Porsche 910 race car at the Springbok Series
This was in February 4th & 5th 2012, for some reason, cost I assume, they declined to host the visiting drivers and cars this year at the Killarney Race Circuit, so Kyalami saw them once and Zwartzkop twice.
This car is an original Porshe 910 and dates back to 1967. It has the six cylinder Boxermotor and is a 2000 cc capacity. Its been to South Africa a number of times and has raced around the world.
Chassis # 910 013 and fitted with a five speed gearbox.
I have one of those those yellow flyers, all in German but the info is detailed, one name connected with the car is David Piper, who I spoke to at a previous revival event.
Rumour has it we may see the return of the Springbok Revival Series back at the Killarney Circuit in 2014, I hope so!
Check this link to see a lot more of the cars at the 2012 event.
