(Hex) H28 hull WIP - Polyloop

sailor-ed · 18th June 2007, 04:30

BWTR was kind enough to share some plans with me that he had for this Herreshoff 28. A sweet little hull. He is working on a model of the boat and I thought I would give it a try too. This is what I came up with.

I went down the boat building track where I made the frames(ribs) first and then skinned (planked). There is no doubt that SailorEds result is way, way superior.

Maybe Ed will detail the little tute he gave me on his methods when he returns from his REAL TIME sailing trip!(Envy, Envy!!!)

very good work! more especially as the old hulls with long skittles are more difficult to model than the modern hulls ...
