You can see the stearing wheel inside, here it was possible to stear the main stearing wheel from inside with an elektrical konstruktion.


Winter storage


the bow


rear building


the daggerboard


the daggerboard open and empied the bilge
the daggerboard is welded, the cable from the center board was passed through a tube of a broomstick to a winch, made of a motor of a windshield wiper.
The tube with the cable inside was leaded above the waterline in the back.
The daggerboard is rusty, and so is the center board. So the center board is not mobile. The center board reaches 5 cm out of the keel for the whole length.
The bottom of the daggerboard is a massive plate of rusty iron on which the daggerboard is welded. The iron plate in the form of the flat bottom of the keel is poured in the keel with polyester and fixed with eight screws through the fiberglass of the keel bottom.
