Right Side Up










latest photos showing the soft supports for the boat, and finally right side up on its keel.
Windows and hatches have been cut for air to work inside.

Waiting to finish the rudder and daggerboard, because the third! shipment of carbon cloth for my supplier is lost on the way from germany to estonia by DHL!

Also need to make some supports for trailer, to be done like Lloyd Crisp`s boat in Australia.

Eventually windows will be made from a single piece of dark tinted plexi. My feeling is confirmed now having looked at the first F-22's launched (two windows is just too fussy for the lines of a small boat). The F-22 needs the simplicity of clean lines.
F-22 no.30 will look more like F-33 Shadowfax see http://www.f-boat.com/f-33.html
but will be burnt orange with black details such as wingnets, windows, hatches etc.
