OUTSIDE LAMINATE DONE

The outside laminate is now done. For that I needed help. It took some time before frends of mine from all over Sweden cold come on the same day. This is an important step becouse now I can take the boat out of the mould and turn her around and make her mobile for the first time. Click once or twice the pictures to enlarge them.

This is the boat before the start.

Here the crew are almost done. Everything went very smouthly. After four houers we finished. The new NM-epxy 625 with its excellent wetting properties and exteremly long open time made work easy.

The peel ply is coming on. Captain Thomas closest to the camera. We sailed an old Albin Vega from Sweden to Florida. We have now also written a book about the venture, to be published 27 of August.
