Good morning Snow PetreL AND ALL
lI can see that you are down in Tasmania do you think I shouldFILL
water tanks with glycol to stop them freezing
Yes I think I have A HARD
dodger is essential are not so difficult to build I would like to sorce all the windows from
Holland but I have no idea where
I have a registered Dutch naval architect working on the
keel with me and the rig
I have decided this to scale the beam up 1.05
It is not too much just a
couple of hundred
millimetres
Of course I know of Skips career dating back
To the days of the Whitbread
race
The video was interesting I'm a great believer in keeping the weight out of the end of the
boat
One thing I do know about and how essential good ground tackle is for my firs tboat I built a 100 lb fisherman type s it was made of 2 inch solid bar with 1 inch plate flukes and a 1 inch stock are some places in the Pacific that you just cannot get any other
anchor to hold on a
coral bottom that happened to us in a place called Ouvea
Lagoon
With all our chain out and then 80 lb danforth
We still dragged we could not stop the boat from dragging spend a horrible night anyway back to
work on the boat once again sorry for the typos I have to dictate this and then copy and paste it into the browser have a good day
