Been while since i updated this.

she has now been for a sail and was pretty awesome for a first day out.

a gallery of the whole build can be found yet.  I'm happy to answer any question from anyone.  and if someone would like to build another i still have the molds and all the information needed to build another.

Finally got a photo of her sailing.

this is from Weymouth regatta on the Saturday.  the Prodder had already started to come loose so rig tension was starting to be come an issue.
