19 July 2022. Not much just a simple homemade device for finding the center of a disc.
I need to find the center of the Tufnol disk I will attach to the centerboard. If the chuck on my lathe was taking larger diameter pieces that would be more easy. I can change the holders in the chuck and then change them back but this method is much quick...

17 July 2022. A new idea for the centerboard. Pivoting but no pin. Can be removed like daggerboard.

14 July 2022. Turning the boat. Long and boring. But speed it up or just watch beginning middle end.
I got nervous when so many people watched that I messed it up. I tried a short cut but the chain is to short to do it in one step. It thus took much longer not only to do the video but also to get it out on internet. You can speed it up and just look begin...

8 July. Fore bulkhead hatch have enough space. Bonus gives excellent handholds.
I have now tested the fore hatch. I am pleased. It is easy to pass through. A bonus is that the rim gives a good handgrip even better than expected. At sea I am crawling around a bit as one imagines a monkey. My upper body gets very strong becouse I always...

6 July 2022. Rope being glued on by help of cable ties. Big hatch twice around for better grip
Three reasons for the rope. It gives the edge a bigger radius making it smother and thuse more kind to the canvas. The flange on the coaming makes a very good handhold. On the big coaming I put the rope twice around to get an even better grip. Handhold goo...

5 July 2022 Release from mold for bow bulkhead coaming.
Things goes well. The first coaming is released from its mold. I will shape it and add one more rope on its pereferi, the other side to structurally get the same effect as an I-beam making it stronger. It will also make a softer edge as not to wear the can...
