1. The Marketplace Forums can be useful for members who know one another well from forum discussions and offline communications and wish to post boatbuilding tools, drafting tools, molds and tooling, and other professional equipment for sale or trade. However, caution and good judgement should always be used. Especially when considering any business with anyone not already well known to you and trusted, due diligence must be used to confirm details and identity and be sure the transaction is safe before any money or property changes hands. Always use good judgement and perform due dilligence and follow these guidelines.

My little piece of peace

    The waterline at designed displacement is marked on the temporary frames. But you'd normally antifoul around 100mm higher than that anyway, just to allow for wave slop.

    Well, the team have excelled, and exceeded all expectation... The starboard hull could show what can be done, I guess a bit more bog/undercoat and a finish that should look like polished diamond...

    A visit by Bob Oram has helped resolve many concerns and further instilled the dictum "Become paranoid on weight issues" and some more drawings and engineering data in the next month or so - Top secret stuff :D:eek:, - so be patient and see it when it is built...

    The team are into the sanding/bogging stuff so - - "nothing to see here, move on now", is all I can offer for the moment... I will be posting images as and when there are changes to report/post...

    My lovely genset is on the market for AU$11,000 pick up from build site... PM me if you are interested and that will include "first start" commissioning by Wattagan.... I will have to look for a smaller - - by 15cm in height system - - :confused: :eek: :confused:

    Standby option is to use the 22hp Kubota 6KW system as standby power in our new home as we are installing solar HWS and 20 PV panels for co-gen power.... (Kubota and batteries will mean we can go offline totally if that need ever arises...)

    More bogging, then removing most in the sanding process, then more bogging, then removing by sanding then........... here is some of the evidence of the labours of the "dream team"....

    Next up 3 of unusual tools (digital scales - wrapped in a plastic bag for protection, mixing drill - not wrapped in plastic, lasts for about 4 to 6 months, and 'disposable' buckets, 700ml 'disposable' cups - to mix in, disposable latex gloves - OHS equipment - or to pretend one is a proctologist - except none of us looks scary enough to play the "Cannon-ball Run" character, - and stuff, then 2 of the boat - diagonally opposite corners...

    G'Day Masalai,

    Please tell us when you have time, about the Nautical brand epoxy primer undercoat; where from, where used and how.

    Thanks for the photos, excellent work by the team and great quality images from yourself.
