Title: While surfing the WEB...
Post by: Tim Gardner on November 06, 2014, 07:50:41 AM
I found this picture in some guy named Frank's (Brackish) photobucket account:

(http://i1007.photobucket.com/albums/af200/brackish_photos/1004477_489398154479167_937047782_n_zps9a15a4b5.jpg)

I have to build one of these for the next Float & Pee season here at SML.  My very own Picnic Cat; with a horizontal (tilt-able) sail
My mods will include air release valving to lower the vessel's sponsons to put the table top at the water level plus 6" for a more comfortable (read: wetter) seating arrangement.

Sorry for the screen grab, Brack, I just had to.

Love the unique tanbark horizontal mainsail. Very rare.

Hey, no offense taken, I think these guys have it pretty well figured out.  I would consider adding a sun deck across the bow that could handle a lounge chair.  Maybe hang the cooler below the table with an access hatch, seems like it is a little too far away from the action.

Where is there pirate flag?

Another nice addition would be a beer keg in the rear with a tap to the end of the table.


Wait a minute....I am a Chesapeake Bay guy....Where is their bushel of crabs!?!?!?!?!?  Beer, butter, Old Bay, and picking crabs.  It would be easy to get rid of the shells!
