[boat builder recommendation]

Can anyone recommend a boat builder with experience working on wooden boats, who would be available and interested in taking on some repair work?

[Righting moment]

I need to work out the righting moment of my 7.6 metre keeler. The problem is I don't know the weight or even the boats design.

 

Can anyone hazard a guess based on the following details, big ask but worth a shot. Maybe someone owns a similarly constructed boat.

 

Length 7.6m, Beam 2.5m. Hull constructed of 25mm edge glued cedar with only three 20mm plywood frames, glassed on the outside only. Plywood deck and low cabin top. Minimal fit out, plywood berths and small cabinet for sink. No engine, water tanks or electrics

 

The fin keel is 1 metre deep (Draws 1.45m) about 1 metre at the root 600mm at the base, lead starting 400mm below root

 

Keel stepped fractional rig (Etchells section) 11.3 metres

 

Cheers
