Well, i have just put a deposit down on a hull shell, rack tubes and deck from Andy P, so i guess its kind of then beginning of a new boat! fun times! me and digby will be following the kirks example of building, and have rack supports (old windsurf masts that will be beefed up a bit), foils (no t-foil made yet), a tiller and stock made all ready. just thought i would borrow a bit of forum space to document build aswell as to ask questions on how to do various things!
oh, a digby doesn't know we havefunding yet, hopefully it will be a good suprise!
yey!

Well done! That is at least two new new boats on the go now.

Edit: I think Stu/Ross' boat may have been number 4 but I think that has stalled.

Cool, Looks good John.

I bet you are quite excited at seeing your boat take shape.

Let us know when will be suitable to plan our get together.  If you want we can do a lot of stuff before you get the shells if that fits your time better and plan a second session to fit stuff together.

Understood.

Like all adults I will have to say concentrate on your revision and exams everything else can wait a little longer.

No pressure, just excited to see another boat taking shape and happy to help.

John, I know the feeling. I 'm working for exams too. They are all over soon and then we can get on with building. I also have a stump sized bit of 600 mast for you. I will also have a load of carbon windsurf mast which you may be able to have some of for tillers and the like.
