Building a Centerboard | creating a perfect foil with a router - Free Range Boat Build Ep. 2
January 19, 2024 by Free Range Living | Language: EN Play Time: 00:00:21:49 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
In this, the second episode of our on-farm boat build, we take a look at using a hand held router to easily shape a Center board as a foil. A router is the next tool on the list of machines I fully respect after a chainsaw. Anything they take, is gone forever!
Starting a boat in the middle may seem strange, but we took on this project to see us through the Christmas and New Year period, when materials and supplies can be hard to buy. Everything required for this project was on hand and a great project for any time I got spare.
This board was made from all recycled material, and we think it came up very well. It added nothing to the cost of the boat, except for some timber glue.
While this board was made from solid timber, glued into a large blank, this technique will work just as well to shape a blank made up from sheets of plywood. We will revisit this board later when it’s time to fibreglass everything, but in the meantime we think this video follows some interesting techniques.
