The centerboard mockup is nearly good but a bit of tweeking will can still be made. The real centerboard will be made of 10 mm G11 epoxylaminate. I like to try it in the real centerboard trunk. I do not have any plywood left but I do have some pieces of packing.
Yesterday night I glued three layers with PU-glue to ger a sheet. I put some lead weights on it.
I was going to cut the shape out but then Sam Holmes came so I went down to the harbor to see him.
As a good sailor he did not want to waste a good wind so he have been sailing the hole night and a bit more.
I will meet him later and we will do some talking and I will be asking him to be so kind as to help me to do a video about the general idea of my boat and my planned route with his opinion.

Sven Yrvind

Hi My name is Sven Yrvind. I design, build and cruise small boats. 1962 I left Sweden in 15 feet converted Blekingseka. I soon found out that there was room for improvement. To understand the basic I began to study mathematics and engenering. 1968 I sailed to England via many contries in a converted 13 feet rowing boat. People told me I be more happy on a bigger boat. November that year I found a wreck an old steam launch build 1885 I converted her to a staysail schooner and sailed her to Rio de Janeiro. That voyage advised me that a bigger boat do not bring happiness, happiness is an inside thing. I designed a 6 meter doubble ender built her in my mother basement. Tried to sail around Cape Horn with her but was capsized and pitchpoled. Later I built an 5.9 meter boat in her I rounded Cape Horn in the southern winter June 1980. I have continued to design, build, and cruise small boats often in high latitudes. Please support me on my donation button on my site yrvind.com
