Jknight611 Posted March 17 Author Report Share Posted March 17 It is really not sideways! Hope to launch next week at a friendly shipyard travelift. Solar panels are all working great, hope to motor around a bit and test the Torqeedo pod drive. 4-1 on the mainsheet sure makes a pile of sheet!

PadrePoint Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 Yes, quite a pile there. Your boat has some great features and I like the colors you’ve chosen. I thought I spotted your CS20mk3 in a video of a Texas event. I didn’t capture the shot. I look forward to seeing how your initial time on the water goes. Edit: Found the video again… Texas 200 in 2017. Is this you? Video link: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jknight611 Posted March 18 Author Report Share Posted March 18 Yep, that was us at “Army Hole” during the Texas 200. Graham was there in Carlita and has written a recap of the adventures on B&B’s website. I think the CS MK series is the perfect boat for sailing that event. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jknight611 Posted May 16 Author Report Share Posted May 16 We did our “technical launch”, had a minor problem with the centerboard trunk, all good now. We wanted to test the rigging before I paint the masts, wasn’t smart enough to do that on our Core Sound 20.3. So the boat is back home getting the masts painted and some minor additions, stuff like binocular rack, spice rack, stuff like that. Notice Carol taking a nap on the bunk behind the lee cloth. The game warden after he completed his inspection, declaring it to be a boat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick C Posted May 17 Report Share Posted May 17 Outstanding!! She's a beauty. Looking forward to photos of her underway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Anderson Posted May 17 Report Share Posted May 17 Great work Jay. You are a detail person and it shows. Just stunning. Even the game warden looks pleased! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick Ludwig Posted May 17 Report Share Posted May 17 Sure is nice to have a game warden to tell us we have a boat! I hope ya paid him well for his services. But, I agree, she IS a boat! Looks beautiful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jknight611 Posted May 17 Author Report Share Posted May 17 The game warden said he had inspected various “homemade “ boats and the general thought it is easier to conduct a “pre license “ inspection than a rescue/recovery. He mentioned some of the boats he inspected/rejected he wouldn’t cross a farm pond in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Silsbe Posted May 18 Report Share Posted May 18 She is stunning, Jay. You must be so proud. I can’t wait to see her under way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jknight611 Posted May 19 Author Report Share Posted May 19 Thank you all very much, it is a beautiful design, with a interesting construction technique. Built basically “inside out” goes quickly, till you start rubbing on it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick Ludwig Posted May 19 Report Share Posted May 19 Awww, forget the "rubbing"! Just slap truck bed coating all over it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
