FUZZY LOGIC
« on: April 06, 2014, 03:20:17 PM »
Fuzzy has a new home in Nottingham. Joe is now working on a makeover, and Fuzz will soon be on the water looking nice. I will post pictures soon to show the progress. Jobs are mostly filler at the moment to sort all the dings and some carbon strengthening to the dagger-slot and reinforcement pads on the for all the fittings. A new gantry needs building and a full paint job and  re-fit.
Therefore, we are now contenders for the elusive Phoenix trophy watch out cellulite!

So what about Sweet Dreamzzz. Well, probably for sale.
Sweet Dreamzzz mast is still in 2 pieces... in the process of sorting and making decisions.
If anyone is interested in owning SDzzz let me know. The mast can be a full professional rebuild or left as it is. The cost of the rebuild is quite expensive and that will reflect the price when available. Shout up soon if you are interested as the mast is due to be repaired very soon, probably next week. SDzzz 97/05 and surface foiling mode - to be completed.

Joes makeover is coming on fine. (that means Ive done it all so far!). So lots been done, hull finished, well 1000 wet and dry and then a buff to the wetted area below the chine to do. 
New swivel gantry made and fitted, all cockpit area non slipped, dagger case strengthened and now have the central case to fit (have already made one but waiting for the old one in the post to decide which to fit).
Mast lacquered and new boom sorted but not yet 'lacqued'.
Photos to post soon.
All done in international precote, toplac and interdeck nonslip.
Still to do. carbon tape rails, finish coat on foredeck, central cockpit control area, bonding gantry tubes, fair and finish transom and then fit out...

Work in progress on the Gantry showing the fit into the transom.
The cross member tube swivels in the end brackets. The end blocks are mahogany.
I pva mould released the carbon tubes and resined the hole inserts to form a tolerance fit. The gantry is held in neutral position with shock-cord. Adjustment runs to center cleats.
Gantry 600 gms.

Can confirm Draycote will accept you on sat 10th of May.
If you are intested in this please say. If there are more than 6 boats they need more people on rescue, the plus side for you is the price goes down. If they get 8 boats then up without warning. You will get a bad name, they won't be as lenient towards the fleet. But worst off. They could refuse water use for the day.

So for your benefit, please say if you would be intested.
Thanks
Jamie
