Andrew and I had a sail of Tiger the weekend before last. Marginal conditions but we figured recent trimming of foil and wand angles need further adjustment. Foil is back at home this week for some minor padding so we can maintain the necessary angle of attack.

Off on Holidays soon, so the workshop will get a clean out ready for some foil making. Need to start out getting our verticals down to weight and up to stiffness. Then some experiments with different ideas for horizontals. Have invested in some much needed vacuum gear.

All in preparation for the 2008 Chainsaw replacement:

Chainsaw is gone. Eric has it in the Balmoral shed.

It now time to get back to the shed and the foil mold and do some improvements as both Andrew and I plan to make some new moths in the next 12 months and some development work is needed.
I have bought a vacuum pump so at least we should be able to shed some weight from the laminates. We also have some new ideas for manufacture and design to try out so now with the workshop warming up expect some new Stevo creations to emerge.
