Hi Frederik, wow it looks good and very sturdy!

Amazing to see the wall thickness of the freedom mast.

Hope to be able to visit you in autumn,

Paul

Routed/drilled out the hole for the main. Mast off center by 13 cm. Better down below. The sail will be on the port side and closer to the centerline. Diameter 240 mm at the partners  

 
The fore deck is 5,5 cm thick there, plus the 5 degree angled block gives 10,5 cm.  aft and 8,5 cm forward in total thickness. 
Bury 155 cm. for 14 meters of mast. LAP to be approx 1250 cm. 
Lopped off the bottom of  the salvaged Freedom 45 mast, resulting in 14 meters weighing 143 kg.

Hi Tony,

I really enjoyed the video. Seeing the boat shed, the boat and the boat builder in a video really helped me understand how massive an undertaking it is to build a boat like this.

Everything is looking great, Frederik! Is it correct that the fiberglass is polyester and not epoxy?

Tony Brown visited with his camera. Have a look.
