Kommetjie Optimist build is fun

A kit we supplied to an Optimist dinghy kit is now under construction in Kommetjie,a suburb of Cape Town.

Hi Roy,

Thanks for the supply of AR-600 epoxy.

I have just glued the mast thwart pieces together and also glued the bow and stern doublers into place.

Temporary and centre bulkheads have been dry fitted and once the resin has dried, I will bevel and dry fit mast bulkhead and mast thwart into position.

So far all is going well, and lots of fun!

Note the ply floor stringers,you need to fix them in before the bulkheads,this info is all in our detailed 14 page builders guide we supply with each Optimist kit we sell.

Please see photos attached.

Regards,

Stuart

Note,this is not Stuarts build,its our own,I have included the picture so that the builders jig required can be fully viewed.
