mini 650


Guest

Recommended Posts

With the mast step, I added 1 x CUD450g and 1 x CDB400g to the inside skin of the hull, lapping up onto the bulk fronts and main bulkhead, then 3 x 20mm ply frames going across, then taped the frames in with 2 x CDB400g and CUD capping on top of the frames. Then a 50x50mm x 3.5mm wall carbon box section with cedar core between the main bulkhead and the keel, on top of the celson. Taped that in with 1 x CDB 400g. That's what's in the picture.

Did anyone else find that pornographic? :oops: :shh:

 

Keep the photos and reports coming, WT. :thumbup:

Minis are CC compliant. Mini = 6.5mts, CC min length = 6.5mts.

 

RNI, RNZ = don't see why knot. They are built to race across the Atlantic. That one would be stronger than most that did the RNI, or at least the hull/decks, don't know about the rig nor the driver ;)

The builder went out of his way to ensure the driver would break before the hull would.

 

Yeah great bloody weather.... Grrrrrrr

No worries with length for Cat 1 or SSANZ for RNI. Chris Sayer did both.

You may have issues with the motor though, as you aren't class rules.

It's all legit Gappy so breath easy there fella (thanks for being the watchdog though :thumbup:).

 

Anyway. There's no point in trying to keep secrets too long in the little old incestuous Auckland boat scene.

 

Bound to get sprung one way or the other.

 

When it's that wide we call it a moooooono Sloops.

wide? looks about as wide as the side deck on my mini! :lol:

It's well worth while getting the tent right. Makes life a lot easier if you can work in all weather. Mine is just starting to show signs of wear, but it's been up for 12 weeks now and it's seen a bit of wind!

yep a good tent is a must. one of the removable end doors blew out in the big blow the other day and it also developed a series of small leaks along the top, nothing major though. had a pretty stressful past month trying to settle into a new job so knot too much done. spent most of today in a grinding suit though and there's probably another 2hrs of it to go.
