Press stop
We have been in Vienna (Austria) for a scientific conference from April 24th to yesterday, and I have had a flu in the last two or three days, so no work on the boat since the last update. In the meantime the 4 bolts for the floats have arrived (special order). In metric sizes, ours are 12 mm diameter, 180 mm long (see photo). I should have bought 4 more large washers... See you soon for the next real update!

Great blog. I am really enjoying watching your progress. I hope you feel better soon and can continue the build.
ReplyDeleteThank you Andrew. I'm still quite weak: I think I ate some not very well preserved food in Vienna at the conference. Taking some more specific medicines now...
ReplyDeleteI am also considering building a Seaclipper 20. When you bought the plans did they come in feet and inches or can you get them in metric?
ReplyDeleteAs far as I know, they only come in the imperial system.
