Move to False Bay Yacht Club, Simonstown

TIDIDI was moved to FBYC on Wednesday the 25th of January and will be on the hard for about 4 months while I get her ready for the water. Better conditions here to finish off the painting and fill the keel with lead.

KEEL Part 2

After much trial and error, I set up a type of jig in order to hold the forward and aft edges on the same plane and stop it from twisting. So it is all tacked together now, with pipes inserted for pouring the lead, and ready for final welding of the seams.
