This blog was created to share experiences from my building of the Ian Farrier designed trimaran F-22R with other builders interested, and to anyone else that might have an interest in why anyone willingly spends hundreds of hours in a room without windows to build a weird looking boat that will sail circles around the traditional sailing boats in this part of the world

First float painted with first colour
This afternoon the starboard float got it's yellow paint. Jotun TopGloss 2-part PU-paint. It is still not dry on the pictures. The deck and beams will be white with antiskid.
Steike!! Gratulerer.
ReplyDeleteGreat colour scheme ! How much do the floats weigh ? Mine were 53 kg in that state . Keep up the good work . Cheers , Jim Buckland .
ReplyDeleteDag, så takk!
ReplyDeleteJim, I don't know, but had a read out of 48,2 kg on a hand held luggage weight before highbuild. So I guess very similar to your weight.
Nice.
ReplyDeleteDet ser jo bra ut! Tenker det er en god følelse å få de første ferdige bitene på plass!
