Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Thanks, that makes sense. One of the things I love about aluminium boats is the ability to weld directly to the boat so having standpipes is very logical. I do also like the idea of a sea chest but...

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

I started reading the thread the other day and have worked through all 87 pages making notes along the way. It's been fascinating following your journey with this build.

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

Re: Bestevaer 49ST

This has been a most informative thread right from the beginning. I know your specifications to the builders must be like a bible and you have mentioned some of the key things you were wanting but...
