This was taken at about 10pm a few days after the BM, hence my phones rubbish quality! Will have my digital camera out on saturday and take some proper photo's.... ![]() Note the acetone, fan heaters and open packets of epoxy! We were in a bit of a panic.... ![]() List of Pimps So Far: - Logos stuck to the front - Completely reroped, mostly in 16 plait, but tack line and bag line are 4mm dyneema, and the main sheet is 7mm maffioli - polished and T-cut - had very cool team rashies made up - instead of control lines led to the middle, they have been run to the front of the rack, leaving a very open cockpit - COMING SOON: 3m Pinup girl for the main, and a mate of mine has some sponsor stickers for us... (should be on by the show tomorrow!) - Reprogripped in black progrip - 2 x new carbon extensions - Pole has been re-blocked, replaced the cheek blocks so my pole slides in and out more easily! ![]() Edited by dave.blakesley |

As well as a 4 different types of epoxies and fillers being used in various orders to try and attach said blocks! Also coming soon - Racks that fit the hull correctly! (Isn't that right Dave!) (( Said boat is sat in my carpark currently, early start tomorow and Dave is being lazy and won't collect it from the club tomorow!! ) Ratface - Wanna pop round for some un-t-cutting? I'm sure we can find some mud to smear on the fordeck .. |

The racks fit properly now! Thanks to the help of a hammer and my body
weight... and yes, yes there was quite a few different chemicals used, but i got there eventally! Sikaflex, wests epoxy, think thats about it, and knowing you you'd be too lazy to take the covers off to smear mud all over the place! |
