Guest Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Have been watching this project. Have you been sailing yet How about some details please, What is the sail measurements ? How much lead etc etc. Are you doing the Coastal Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ballystick 56 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 No Coastal this year, maybe next year. Knowlesy (owner) may put some details up. As you know there is a lot of detail work involved in a build, especially in this project, that stuff all takes time but everyone at Tauranga YC are looking forward to its first sail outing. The main things that I know are that it is real light as its full of carbon, nomex and titanium! It has good headroom and built to be cruisable. It has a lift keel for dodging sandbacks in Tga Harbour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Atom Ant 0 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Carbon bog painted white? Or "bog standard" plastic jobbo? Fab job on the recreation of the boat. Hats off to you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
white tornado 1 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Bog standard china loo, for now, $4 on trade me. Carbon one in a month or 2, after we get the mast finished. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ballystick 56 Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 Time Warp had it's first sail on Tuesday for a charity regatta, not sure of how things went but it is at last out on the harbour with it's sails getting the systems worked out etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Island Time 984 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Great effort, she looks fantastic! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ballystick 56 Posted March 4, 2015 Author Share Posted March 4, 2015 Great skills KM, and good spotting! That is a fold down boarding step/platform. It has a lot of innovative/unusual features (and primarily functional) I would say that a Gyro Gearloose type person would be proud of! Even the anchoring system is included in that list KM !

ballystick 56 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 A final touch to Time Warp is the carbon toilet made by Riaan (Marine Plus), he is investigating making some more for keen yachties by making up moulds etc., still a labour intensive process though due to the intricate shape of the crapper.
