Build her youself,its kids stuff really
When Dave in Philidelphia,USA,bought one of our Didi mini transat 6.5mtr kits,we had no idea what he was planing next,he had discussions with Jim at BCMS (bayfront center for maritime studies)) and they jointly decided that the local schools kids could build his kit for him.The program involved inner city kids with an interest for having a go themselves,they were shown the project and asked if they wanted to be involved,not told this is what they will do,it was only those pupils who raised their hands in reply to a question such as 'do you want to be involved?' that then moved them to the next stage,as the pictures show,they made a good job of it too.
