Ians New Zealand Cape Cutter 19 kit build continues


Ians Cape Cutter 19 build pictures,he will soon be laying the decks then fitting out.


This is a nice shot of the cockpit.


Ian has chosen white to finish his hull,thats a good choice,dark colours can bring their own problems on a wood/epoxy build,its a heat build up thing.


Ian has now finished the cockpit,it takes more time due to the various shapes and corners,its a nice cockpit though.


A view of the boats foredeck.


Looking down at the outboard well,the motor is raised when sailing,a 5hp outboard is all the boat needs?

Some pictures from Ian on South Island,New Zealand have just come in,we like to get our customers to send progress reports and pictures,its good blog stuff and helps us keep in touch with our clients.

Ian was telling me he is not as fast as he could be but progress is being made,I suggested he never stop to consider what he was attempting to do,he may stop forever and never get finished? Ians reply came in with the following Chinese probverb.

Fear not to move slowly -Fear only not to move,as Ian comments,they have a point!

Note,Ians was the very last Cape Cutter 19 kit that was allowed,its a licence thing,so we now offer its 10% larger sister the Cape Henry 21,we can do the Cape Charles 32 as well.
