Kennneee Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Wow! The speed and quality of your work is impressive. Love the mast you are building.  I have been thinking about a mast for Rosie as well. I would also like to incorporate a radar mount and perhaps a dorade style vent into the mix. I seem to like to make my life complicated. I will mount mine on the pilot house roof. Any ideas from the forum appreciated. Keep up the fabulous work!

alexscott Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 I have always thought that it would be better to have a dorade vent at the base of the windshield of a pilothouse boat rather than the roof. You might make a brace from the mast to the pilothouse roof to run the cables to the radar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennneee Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 Alex- Thanks for the suggestion. I am planning to mount everything on the pilot house roof. For me that works better than mounting it on the cuddy roof. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 Love the hand rails. Your works nice and tidy. Not to sure about the mast though. Different blokes different strokes . I've been following your build. I think your hull #55? I'm hull# 54. You're way ahead of me but I had to build a shop to build the boat first Haha. Keep up the good work. What are you doing for fuel tanks? Just using 25ltr totes? And what are your going to push her with. Casey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the compliment, you are also building nicely with your boat so I can see from the pictures I am indeed building with hull with number 55 The fuel tank is placed in one of the Rear seats As an outboard engine I have a honda 10 hp You need a permit to sail faster than 12 miles and that is only allowed in three places in my province, and I don't have a permit So 10 hp is more than enough Jan  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chick Ludwig Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 Beautiful job! She's a great looking boat. Give yourself a BIG pat on the back!  I just noticed the aft end of your keel. It needs to be tapered gradually as it comes to the transom or it will create turbulence in a turn causing the prop to cavitate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Silsbe Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 Wow!  This boat brings back fond memories for me.  My parents had a 28’ cruiser along these same lines.  Some of your details are precisely the same.  Thanks for the memories!  Your workmanship is outstanding.
