Not sure, but this photo could be the start of a bow sprit . . .
That's all folks for this session. With it being summer down under, we expect progress on UHURU to slow a bit until the weather cools.
Geoff,
That noise you heard was my jaw hitting the floor. Outstanding! You've done an incredible job fitting the most into such a small boat. Where does one start?
In post #77 it looks like a chain locker drain just above the boot stripe on the starboard side. If it is, how about a brief description of the 'inner workings' behind that one. Of course we'd like photos of all points of interest too so I won't bother asking
The cockpit shower would be an absolute mst in the tropics. How much water will you be able to carry with you? Do you have provisions for capturing rainwater in the works or are you intending to add one of those 240lpd watermakers?
Yeah, I always go back to it but that is fantastic stainless work you have there. The photos Bill has posted here are the ones I'm taking to the local fabricators around here so they get the right idea on what it's supposed to look like.
Your galley is inspirational! What more can anyone say? I may need to rethink what I'm doing here. From all of the books and photographs I've collected, your galley looks as prepared for offshore work as the best I've ever seen. Wow.
Who has the secret for that flawless, 'wrapped' cabin sole. It makes the interior look wider and gives a great visual field. Is it plywood or solid wood laid in place.
I'm sure I'll revisit these photos and come up with more questions, but that's it for now. Just remember, while you're loungin' in the shade this summer, it's -24C here and the wind chill is around -40C.What am I doing here!?! All the best for you Geoff.
