Definitely looks more like a proper boat with the pole attached. It is obvious the spin will catch more air and more easily from the end of this pole than how we rigged it on Ytterøya rundt.
Glued and taped the new wing net rail inner supports
Laminated a goose neck on a plug from building foam. Covered in peel ply and wrapped in tape during cure. The plan is to melt out the foam with acetone or some other chemical.

Hi Tor , a few teething problems , hope you get some sailing in before Winter ! I think one of the problems with the wing net supports is the very acute angle they make , we shaped ours a bit differently and they are vertical - much more efficient for the strain involved . Keep up the good work . Cheers , Jim Buckland .
Thanks Jim. I don't quite understand your wing net support mod. I do hope my mod will be sufficient though. Will be sailing in Oslo fjord this week end.
